Letting Go: An Ordinary Miracle of Grace and Courage
OpenSpirit Sunday Evening; October 11, 2009; 7 – 8pm; Performing Arts Center of MetroWest
First, an invitation! Please, if you are able, bring something with you – ‘something you possess that possesses you.’
Is there a belonging that weighs you down, encumbers you? If you can’t bring the item itself, then bring something that symbolizes it. You’ll find out the rest when you get here! 
Jesus calls us to let go of anything that gets in the way of God. Sometimes we perceive his call as a joyous invitation; sometimes it is a challenge to our way of being in this world.
Together, we will explore Jesus’ ancient words, a passage from the Gospel of Mark … which are perhaps more relevant in these days than ever before.
Do you ever long for simplicity, be owned less by material possessions? Bring this longing to OpenSpirit. We will reflect on letting go, and in so doing, receiving. Losing, in order to find; it’s paradoxical, like many things in the life of the spirit.
Come, be with us as we search together for simple gifts of the Spirit. OpenSpirit; in the evening light, to the strains of music and the whispers of prayer, God is with us.
