Tenebrae Worship - two services
Good Friday, April 6 ~ Noon and repeated at 6:30 p.m.
Trinity United Methodist Church
440 Maxwell Rd, Eugene
For more information contact the church office 541-688-3269.
On Good Friday, April 6, make plans to join with others for a brief tenebrae worship in the sanctuary at Noon and repeated at 6:30 PM. Tenebrae, a word that in Latin means "shadows or darkness", is the focus of our brief communal worship. We will focus growing shadows of darkness as we commemorate Jesus' experience on the cross. In simple sung songs, scripture and poetry, this worship features the extinguishing of candles that represent the growing darkness. Between the two prayer services, a journey through the Stations of the Cross will be available in the fellowship room. In addition the sanctuary and labyrinth will be open for prayer. (The labyrinth is located in an outdoor courtyard, please be prepared to enjoy the weather.)
This 4/6 Tenebrae event will take the place of our monthly Saturday labyrinth walk.

We will do traditional yoga warm ups, a yoga “kriya/set”, a delicious relaxation to music, and a great short meditation. Questions welcomed.

"The Soul of the Heart Sacred Circle"
with Catherine VanWetter
Thursdays, April 12 and 26, May 10 and 24 ~ 7 - 9 PM
Suggested donation $20
No one is turned away, if money is an issue, please contact me.

www.ToTheHeartOfTheMatter.com
"The Soul of the Heart Sacred Circle" combines Hellinger's Systemic Constellation Work and sacred ceremony. It is an experiential process, working at a deep soul level. This heart-based approach brings more immediate and lasting impact than techniques that address the mind alone. Through constellation work, we uncover hidden generational dynamics which create obstacles that prevent us from living our lives well. Shifts occur on a systemic level so that we can experience the natural flow of love, strength and support within our lives.

Nuf said?
[SPN Note: There are several Oregon ties (Snatam Kaur and Gangaji) in the presenters list for this awesome, and very reasonably priced event given the number of speakers and workshops. Also, I'm using my publisher's discretion since Dayna and Eyal graduated from the Kol Zimra Chant program with Rabbi Shefa Gold which I was in in 2008 and Michael Beckwith was my first metaphysics mentor back in the 80's. I know this program will be outstanding!]
