Saturday, January 11, 2020

What: Lectio Divina Workshop

Time: 9:00am - 1:00 pm

Where: St. Galls Catholic Church, Gardnerville, NV

Contact: Therese, 775-901-3839

Details: Lectio Divina is an ancient contemplative way of praying the Scriptures. Finding time each day to ponder the Scriptures, to listen attentively with the ear of the heart and to allow the Word of God to speak to us, leads us to discover the deeper meaning of Scripture and opens us to a deeper intimacy with God. Reflection on the Word imprints the Word on one’s heart and slowly changes the way one perceives reality and how we respond to daily life. It puts us in touch with the very ground of our being, where we are one with God’s Spirit within us. The transforming power of Lectio Divina frees us from our falsity and slowly draws us into our truth in the light of God’s Word. Over time we are shaped into the word of God we were created to be. Offered free of charge.

"The ecumenical spirituality of World Day of Prayer is a yearlong experience that inspires us to be ready to receive from God inspiration by listening to the voice of women linked to a country context, Bible texts, prayers, and a theme. Praying and acting together creates and strengthens community between people near and far.

Details: The event was hosted and facilitated by Frederica King and Hector Diaz. All of Fr. Keating's introductory workshop follow-up videos were shown in one day. This "One Day Wonder" event was a marathon of sorts. They began promptly at 9:00 a.m. with brief introductions. There was no formal lunch time, but three were short breaks between the videos for discussion, eating, etc. They asked for attendees to bring their own bag lunch/snacks/drinks. Water and dark chocolate were provided.
