The Gifts of Our Stories - Encountering the Wonder of our Risen Christ

During Eastertide, we will gather and spend some time reflecting together on the wonder of encountering our Risen Christ along our journeys. We'll be walking with the disciples along the Road to Emmaus for this storytelling gathering. What does resurrection life and faith look like in our everyday lives? How have we experienced 'our hearts burning within us' in Christ's presence? How can relationships and community cultivate 'eyes to see and ears to hear' that are open to God's wonder? This gathering will integrate contemplative practices, personal reflection time and small group story circles.

Who is this for? This event is open to anyone who is curious about integrating personal storytelling with contemplative prayer reflection. This gathering will be a space for personal reflection and story exploration; an opportunity to both tell and listen to others’ stories of courage.
