enfolded love – trinity worship
Everyone got a bead as they walked in – a range of choices, they choose the bead that suited them. I talked about Genesis 18 and Rublevs trinity. Strangers are welcome, there is space at God’s table.
Then we made friendship bracelets – three strands for Creator/Redeemer/Sustainer – woven together. And the invitation to insert their chosen bead, because they are welcome at God’s table.
Then I VJed around Rublev’s icon, and the person beside us tied the friendship bracelet onto our arm – to St. Patrick’s breastplate – I bind unto myself today the strong name of the Trinity.

i love nouwen’s teaching on praying with icons. he explains it so beautifully that i finally understood what community truly is, and that prayer is entering into the community of the trinity. what a great way to illustrate it. you are so gifted at that steve!
