Our Midweek worship is a beautiful reflective and meditative service in-person and livestreamed. The worship service has Iona/Celtic influences in some of the prayers and music, along with beautiful Taizé music and prayers.
Worship consists of:
Short repetitive songs/chants. Using just a few words that express a basic reality of faith, quickly grasped by the mind. Meditative singing thus becomes a way of listening to God.
Prayers
Bible readings
A short reflection to ponder or questions to reflect on
Holy Communion where everyone is invited to the Lord's Table
Space for anyone to light a candle and pray
Sending Blessing to send us on our way knowing God is with us always
During Advent, our midweek worship switches to Holden Evening Prayer is a beautiful, contemporary vespers service that was written by Marty Haugen in 1985-86 while at Holden Village, a Lutheran retreat center in Washington state.
During Lent, our midweek worship switches to a Lenten theme using a variety of resources.
