As we gather, we will ritually embody our faith life and community as ministers to and with one another. We also gather to reimagine and liberate scripture in ways that help us embody our faith so that our diverse selves and contexts become a living part of the radical love and justice of the Gospel.

Our time together will include:

* Gathering Music: Music to gather and center us into our time and purpose together.

* Opening Ritual: A time for community-building guided reflection and sharing.

* Divine Reading (Lectio Divina): A Spirit-led, meditative scripture reading using multiple different interpretations and/or Gospel versions of the day’s scripture to deepen our living understanding of the scripture, its interpretations, and meaning for us today.

* Relational Reflection & Prayer: We will reflect on the day’s scripture and theme together and engage provided reflection questions as a way of integrating the living scripture into our lives, relationships, contexts, and faith community. We will also use this time to pray together using prayer prompts and a blessing that will be provided. We also invite you to share prayers that are on your heart and mind in the moment.

* Communion: A time to commune over a small meal with one another, with music, and sharing in the Our Creator’s Prayer (Juniper Formation's version).

If you have any questions or want more information about the Gathering, please don’t hesitate to reach out!
