Tuesday, November 24th: Praying in Color – 7:00 p.m. – 8:30 p.m.
Cara Gay Driscoll and I will invite people into a creative mode of praying – a synopsis:“Maybe
you love color. Maybe you hunger to know God better. Maybe you are a visual or kinesthetic
learner, a distractible or impatient soul, or a word-weary pray-er. Perhaps you struggle with a
short attention span, a restless body, or a tendency to live in your head.” We will introduce a
play-full, insight-full way to color our way into praying for whatever people or situations we
want to lend our support to.

Tuesday, December 1st: Walking the Labyrinth with Cam Fraser – 7:00 – 8:30 p.m.
Cam Fraser, one of the ministers at Knox Metropolitan United Church, will bring his canvas
labyrinth to our space. His leadership is gentle, invitational, and very compassionate. We will
walk as individuals, grounded in community. Walking our way to the centre and back out again,
allowing the soothing pace to nurture body and soul.

Thursday, December 10th: Praying through and with food – 7:00 – 8:30 p.m.
Nicholas Belanger, and his parents Leo and Leona Belanger, will introduce us to their love of
cooking food that warms the heart and soothes the soul! They are going to help us make soup,
which we will then deliver to Carmichael Outreach as our way of sharing the ministry that comes
through the gift of homemade soup. Carmichael Outreach has already thanked us in advance for
thinking of them as we make our plans for the Christmas season.

Tuesday, Dec. 15th: Music & Melody-the peace that passeth all understanding! 7 – 8:30
p.m.
Shirley Hill is going to offer to our community the gift that she offers to those of us who work in
the building every week – the gift of listening to the soothing and peace-filled notes of the piano.
We will sit in a circle, with no conversation – a chance to be still and to listen to music that
speaks of peace. We will have baskets with the words of the season – hope,
peace, joy, love – which people can peruse and meditate on. We will have
paper and crayons for those who like to color for relaxation. We will have
tea to sip on. An evening that invites us to be still – to be silent – in
community.
