For those of you who may not know, as a house (like many houses before us) we have Spiritual Direction meetings once a month, led by David Doubt. Every month we try out different spiritual practices, have journaling time, and discussion. During Spiritual direction this week, we walked the labyrinth in David's backyard. I have a serious affinity for labyrinths, so this was my favorite Spiritual Direction that we've had so far. I don't think I'll be around for any further meetings, so it was nice to end on a special one. Below are some photos of Laura, Kristen, Hannah, Jessie, David, and I walking the labyrinth.
Tonight Highland Ave. COB is having a special evening service to celebrate the spiritual gifts of its members, and to allow for an intentional sabbath all day tomorrow. As a house we decided that we wanted to take advantage of a true Sunday sabbath and have come up with a list of things that we're going to do tomorrow. I'm pretty stoked about it. We're going to cook and have a special brunch, go for a walk (weather pending), write cards to church members, and have a hymn-sing. For a few of us who are getting ready for a seriously full summer, this next week or two has been dubbed the calm before the storm. It will be nice to have tomorrow for rest and celebration of our community, before we part ways for a little while.
