“We are called to pay attention, to notice the small miracles that surround us every day.”
Barbara Brown Taylor
This course invites lay and ordained leaders into a reflective and experiential exploration of spiritual practices that can enrich congregational life. Through prayer, contemplative listening, and creative expression, participants will discover ways to nurture both personal spirituality and communal faith. Emphasis will be placed on practices that can be adapted and shared within diverse congregational contexts, fostering connection, awareness, and transformation. Participants will engage in hands-on exercises, guided reflection, and dialogue that illuminate the interplay between individual spiritual growth and the life of the community.
By the end of the course, leaders will be equipped with practical tools and insights to foster deeper engagement, enrich worship, and support ongoing spiritual formation and congregational vitality. This is an invitation to notice, attend to, and embody the sacred in everyday congregational life.
