Creative Praying with The Saint John's Bible (Glenda Dietrich Moore, MDiv, BFA)

Enjoy a day of contemplation and creativity with the aid of The Saint John’s Bible.The Saint John’s Bible beautifully presents both Scripture and Illumination, and both will be used as we prayerfully reflect and respond from our creative selves. Our starting point will be selected sections of Scripture (lectio). Illuminations (visio) from The Saint John’s Bible will aid us in going deeper into the Scripture. We will then be invited to visually express what is in our hearts.Very simple art materials will be used in a non-threatening manner while focusing on the process rather than the end product, and NO previous art experience is necessary. Paint, oil pastels, collage materials, colored pencils, and paper will be provided; participants may wish to bring any art materials they have available, such as colored gel pens, markers, glue, scissors, calligraphy pens and ink. Please register no later than August 13.
