Silence and God’s Voice: An OpenSpirit Sunday Evening. Welcome Back and Welcome Home!
September 27, 2009; 7 – 8pm; Performing Arts Center of MetroWest, Framingham, MA.
Are you longing for space to listen for God? Come, join us; OpenSpirit can be that space. Are you searching for ways to hear God’s voice, companions who will listen with you?
Eremitic Order of Mount Carmel: Elijah the Prophet
Do we hear that precious voice in a whisper, in the wind? In flames of fire, an earthquake’s power? Or is it found in paradox, a sound of sheer silence? Come, at OpenSpirit, we will experience all of these. Together, we listen for Beloved’s voice; gathered, we discern invitation and message and call.
Last week, we sojourned with Elijah under ‘broom trees’ of our own; sustaining angels graced our stories, and our prayer. This week, let us journey with our ancient prophet to the mountaintop, experience the majesty of Creation’s elements. Let us discover the Voice, the Word that awaits us.
What is the sound of stillness, the quality of sheer silence? Is it papable; can it transform?
Bring a friend, and share the experience of OpenSpirit. Worship is experiential and participatory. The music invites you to dance. We gather in an open circle, and there is aways an extra chair. In word and in silence, with elements of Christian tradition both ancient and new, as a community, we practice the presence of God.
