LECTIO DIVINA

 

DIVINE READING
 

Tuesday at 7pm in St. Peter’s Presbytery.

All Welcome

The format is as follows:

We begin with our Opening Prayer:

In the scriptures, by the Spirit,
May we see the Saviour’s face,
Hear his word and heed his calling,
Know his will and grow in grace.


One of the readings for the following Sunday is read aloud by the Leader of the session. 

 We all read the passage several times, in silence.

-what word or phrase “ jumps out” at me and why ?…

-  what is God saying to me in this reading?…


Following the period of silence, the Leader invites us to share (if we wish) the fruit of our reflection; and to pray a short prayer based on it – thanksgiving, petition or sorrow.


We pray the ‘Glory be to the Father’ and take home the reading for further reflection, if desired.

 

Why not come along and join us on Monday night.
