The 23rd Psalm
The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not be in want.
He makes me lie down in green pastures and leads me beside still waters.
He revives my soul and guides me along right pathways for his Name's sake.
Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I shall fear no evil;
for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.
You spread a table before me in the presence of those who trouble me;
you have anointed my head with oil, and my cup is running over.
Surely your goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the L
ORD for ever.

Contemplative Prayer Mondays at 5:15 pm
In contemplative prayer we experience God's presence within us, closer than breathing, closer than
thinking, closer than consciousness itself. This method of prayer is both a relationship with God and a
discipline to foster that relationship.
Contemplative Prayer is not meant to replace other kinds of prayer. Rather, it adds depth of meaning
to all prayer and facilitates the movement from more active modes of prayer - verbal, mental or
affective prayer - into a receptive prayer of resting in God. It emphasizes prayer as a personal
relationship with God and as a movement beyond conversation with Christ to communion with Him.
You are invited to join us Mondays at 5:15 pm. If you can arrive at 5:00 pm and introduce yourself to
Peggy or Kay, we will help you with your first visit.
