WEEKLY
Mindfulness Meditation meets weekly on Mondays at 5:30 p.m. in the Sanctuary
Mindfulness Meditation centers the human spirit, calms the mind, reduces stress, improves cognitive function and provides a myriad of other well documented health benefits. More significantly, however, it is a transformative spiritual practice with the capacity to expand our awareness, enliven our hearts, and deepen our sense of compassion. Having taught Eastern and Western forms of meditation for almost three decades, Mark Forbes, our facilitator and former Rector of St. Patrick's, will offer a weekly, sixty-minute program designed to gently introduce the practice into the lives of beginners, while simultaneously offering the seasoned meditator a fertile space to grow their practice. All are welcome to attend. No registration necessary.

We are once again working in partnership with Davidson United Methodist Church and "A Roof Above Ministry" to provide over-night housing for our unhoused neighbors during the coldest months of the year. One Thursday and Sunday night per month, December through March, volunteers are needed to set up, provide & host dinner, host guests overnight, and clean up the next morning. Please consider joining us as we demonstrate our Christian values, broaden our minds, and open our hearts to those in our community who need it most.
