This first Sunday of Lent, 22nd February, at 8a.m. we will be gathering again at
St. Mary's Church, Sullington, RH20 4AE
for
A Service of Silence & Beholding
an unhurried time of silence and stillness, in which to dwell at the heart of the Eucharist
In this Lenten season the invitation is one of 'metanoia' - of turning -
to seek the face of God in the Beloved.
To be still before God in silence is to turn.
The more we practice stillness, the more the turning happens,
and in the turning stillness,
all else but the Oneness of Love falls away.
Turn
‘Metanoia’
Turn around
Seek the face of the Holy
Attend
Give yourself to this one thing
Again and again
'Have one intention,
to remember the One.
Practice turning from the many to the One.
Practice seeing the many in the One and the One in the many.
Live in union with the One which unifies through the One.'
Priest-Monk Silouan
Wisdom Songs - adapted
Peace be with you
