lectio lenten offerings: men and the Easter story
When you leave a church, you always wonder what will emerge, especially in the interim space while the search for new leaders takes shape.
So a great delight to get an email last nite from friends at Opawa Baptist, with news of a new initiative, a group for men, using lectio divino, with a particular focus on men and the Easter story. A sort of baptist approach to Lent!
The three guys organising it all have their own story: one baptised the last Sunday I was at Opawa, one blossoming in his creative writing, abilities, another recent to Opawa. So great to see some men coming together to simply making space to sit around the Bible. Classy visuals, which include some personally crafted opening and closing prayers.
Great stuff. Wish I was there!
Yes!
Starts this Thursday March 4, 7:30pm @ the Friendship Centre, across the road from Opawa Baptist Church.
