A Stone Soup Method

Sunday for Stone Soup, we'll meet at Judd's Peak at 4:30 for some sky watching. We'll focus on learning how to read a biblical text using the Lectio Divina method. Then as we experience the setting sun and rising planets, we'll practice reading the text of place/location using the same questions for Lectio Divina. Our last question is always, "How is God forming me or calling me through this text/context. This will be an interesting experiment and will also teach us how everyone is capable of leading Stone Soup worship. Bring Thanksgiving leftovers or something picnic-like to share as we snack and watch. Dress warmly. Bring binoculars, sky charts and a big hunger for awe!

Charge Conference and Wild Life Sanctuary 2016!!!

For Stone Soup on Sunday November 6, we'll meet at Columbus UMC at 4:30. There will be the regular business things to be approved as required but also a time of worship and presentation of Wild Life Sanctuary. That is a video witness that Lena and Rob have been working on. It is interviews with people from both churches about "How God Works in Our Lives". It will be inspiring and challenging. Come on out. We'll have a bit of cake at the end. We will not have a meal, we should be through by 5:30ish.
Peace,
See you then...
