Third Monday Facilitated Labyrinth Walk And Taiz Prayers For Peace

February 20, 7:00 p.m.

Please join us for a contemplative third Monday of February. We’ll start in Child Hall for an hour of walking the sacred labyrinth path starting at 7:00 p.m. Or come a few minutes early for a brief introduction if you are new to the labyrinth. Carlisle Dent is our Veriditas-trained labyrinth facilitator. Then, come to Mikell Chapel at 8:00 for Taizé Prayers for Peace. Originating in Taizé, France, this simple service of scripture, music, silence, and candlelight will bring a beautiful and prayerful close to your Monday. Sandra Carey and Barbara Bazzel are our Taizé Coordinators.

The facilitated Labyrinth walk and Taizé service take place every third Monday at the Cathedral. Come to one, or both – and bring a friend! Questions? Contact Jeannie Mahood, jmahood@ cathedralATL.org, or 404-365-1031.

LENTEN QUIET DAY WITH DR. LERITA COLEMAN BROWN

Walking in the World with Inner Authority

Saturday, March 18, 9:30 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. During these times of misinformation, disinformation, and personal attacks, how can we walk confidently in the world? Both Howard Thurman and Richard Rohr suggest we become aware of and engage our inner authority. Join us for this Lenten Quiet Day, our “wilderness time,” to ponder our relationship with inner authority and its link to the restoration of the self God created. The day will include time in silence and meditation, journal reflections, walking the labyrinth, and other expressive activities.

Lerita Coleman Brown, PhD, Professor Emerita of Psychology, Agnes Scott College, is a spiritual director/companion, retreat leader, author, and speaker. She promotes contemplative spirituality, the living wisdom of Howard Thurman, and uncovering the peace and joy in one’s heart. Lerita’s new book, What Makes You Come Alive: A Spiritual Walk with Howard Thurman was recently published by Broadleaf Press. Lerita is a most grateful heart (28 years) and kidney (17 years) transplant recipient and survivor of several medical ordeals.

The Quiet Day will take place in the Lanier House on the Cathedral campus, 9:30 a.m. – 2:00 p.m., Saturday, March 18. The cost is $20 and includes lunch. Please register before March 13 by contacting Jeannie Mahood, jmahood@cathedralATL.org

WOMEN’S LENTEN RETREAT: ALTARS AND ALTERED

March 17-19, 2023

Cathedral women, along with women friends or relatives, are invited to attend our annual Lenten Retreat, March 17-19 at St. Mary’s Sewanee in Tennessee. As we weather transformations in our lives, it is important to remember and revisit our sacred core with intention. This weekend we will explore altars. What are they for? How do they ground us? What can they look like? And we will build altars—sacred spaces to visit within ourselves and outside ourselves. In the beautiful setting of St. Mary’s Sewanee, there will be plenty of time to rest, play, enjoy the outdoors, and be in fellowship with God and one another.

The retreat will be led by Canon Lauren Holder, with Canon Cathy Zappa. The cost for a single occupancy is $320 or $260 for a double. The registration deadline is February 23. Contact Canon Holder, lholder@cathedralATL.org, or Jeannie Mahood, jmahood@cathedralATL.org with questions. For more information and to register, visit cathedralATL.org/spirituality.
