We gather at 11a.m. CT in the OCC Meditation Chapel and online (link in email) for contemplative practice of your choice—mindful sketching, centering prayer, or however you choose to engage silence. This week will be facilitated by Teagan Shumaker, M.Div. student. We will read the text and then engage in contemplative practice in silence for 15 minutes. Afterward, you are welcome to sit in fellowship or go about your day. Text is Exodus 3:1-12. Share your prayer requests.
