A Bible Study on Prayer

Bryan Byun — Sun, 03 Oct 2010 20:00:54 +0000

Richard J. Foster says that coming to prayer is like coming home. “Nothing feels more right, more like what we are created to be and to do. ”

Prayer can move us inward into personal transformation, upward toward intimacy with God, and outward to minister to others. If you are interested in discovering a deeper understanding and practice of prayer, then join the Wednesday night Study Group at MCCA.

Group will meet the first and third Wednesday, beginning October 6, from 6:15 – 7:00 pm. All are welcome to attend this group – no experience necessary!

Come and find your heart’s true home through this study on prayer!

Words from the Pastor

Rev. Judith Maynard — Sat, 02 Oct 2010 20:00:44 +0000

Many thanks for all of you who serve so faithfully in ministry. We depend so much on volunteers at MCCA and your service makes us such a great faith community.

Please continue to keep in prayer those who are ill and facing challenges. Our prayers together make a difference.

I look forward to worshiping with you this Sunday. Come and hear a story about a young shepherd boy named David who faced a giant and by using his resources came out victorious!

God bless you and your loved ones.

Pastor Judy

Labyrinth Walk: Wednesday, September 22nd

Bryan Byun — Thu, 09 Sep 2010 03:15:37 +0000

Come and walk the Labyrinth on Wednesday, September 22, from 6 pm until 7:30 pm.

The Labyrinth is a tool to use in contemplative prayer and meditation. Labyrinths are often confused with mazes. A maze has dead ends and blind alleys, while the labyrinth has only one path leading both in and out of the center.

The labyrinth is flat, one can always see the center. The destination is assured, so that the mind can be still and attentive.

Walking the labyrinth clears the mind and gives us insight into our spiritual journeys. The labyrinth does nothing on its own. It is simply a tool helpful for many people in deepening their prayer lives.

Each walk in and out of the labyrinth is a unique opportunity to meet our creative, loving God through contemplative prayer.
