Mark your calendars for October 23-24 when Women of the Diocese of the Rio Grande will gather at Hope in the Desert Episcopal Church (8700 Alameda NE, Albuquerque) for "Prayer Sampler."
This will be a time to be refreshed and inspired as we experience many types of prayer. Taize, Lectio Divino, and Contemplative Prayer will be highlighted. There will be some fun surprises throughout the day, too!
Registration information will be available September 1 with early bird pricing of $60 available through the end of September. You are encouraged to attend in person as these forms of prayer are best experienced 'live,' however a Zoom option is available for those who cannot travel.
Attendees are encouraged to submit a prayer (or 2) to Cindy prior to the event. All the prayers will be compiled into a booklet for each participant as a way to enrich our prayer lives through the sharing of prayer. (These don't have to be original prayers, just a favorite prayer from any resource.)
