FRIDAY MEDITATION AND MINDFULNESS
Center yourself and find peace in the midst of your busy life. Friday Meditation and Mindfulness, led by Becky Burks, meets twice monthly at 12:30 p.m. December times: Jan. 30, Feb. 6 and 20.
"Sing" with SpiritSong FEB. 1
NOTE DATE CHANGE: The musical group SpiritSong will return to host a "Sing" Sunday, Feb. 1, 2-3:30 p.m. (The event was originally scheduled for Jan. 31)
The group, which originally formed almost 30 years ago at Friends Congregational Church in College Station, includes Middleway spiritual director Cathy Hansen as a guitarist and singer with the group. Refreshments will be served, and the event is free.
Creating with the Creator
If you don't think you're creative, we've got just the thing. If you know you're creative, but need a boost, you've found your people.
Middleway will host the 12-week "The Artist's Way" course on Thursday evenings, 6:30-8 p.m, beginning Feb. 5.
"'The Artist's Way" links creativity to spirituality" and provides a structure of exercises and activities that spur imagination leading to new ideas. Register here.
Meditative Slow Stitch to begin
Slow stitch, a creative thread art style, will begin Wednesday, Feb. 18, 3-4 p.m.
"Slow stitch is an easy and fun way of using fabric and embroidery stitches to create a 'painting,'" said Claire Lewis, a spiritual direction student who will lead the class along with Kathleen Phillips. "You can use a pattern or just go freeform. It is a meditative form of stitching that is relaxing and beautiful."
Lewis said people can bring their own supplies or use the fabric and embroidery threads and needles at the monastery. The group will meet monthly on the third Wednesday.
IN THE NEWS
THE BATTALION
The monastery presents itself spiritually as humbly as it does physically. Taking its name from the ancient phrase "via media," it is a picture of moderation between the "high" and "low" churches of the area
THE EAGLE
“My experience of church is churches are built for extroverts. It’s harder to find those quiet moments in a church’s life. … A place dedicated toward spirituality, meditation, contemplation, I think is necessary.”
KBTX
On Friday evening, the Middleway Urban Monastery offered people the opportunity to walk for peace, as a form of experiential prayer, for the situation in Ukraine and other parts of the world in chaos.
