PASTORAL Care SPIRITUALITY

Third Monday Facilitated Labyrinth Walk And Taiz

PRAYERS FOR PEACE

March 20, 7 p.m.

Whether at work, at home, with friends or teammates, or in more formal helping roles, many of us have been, or will be, called upon to respond to someone who is experiencing a mental-health crisis or considering suicide. The Cathedral is hosting a twoday workshop in one of the world’s leading suicide-intervention models, Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training (ASIST). ASIST teaches individuals to provide a skilled intervention to a person who may be having thoughts of suicide and develop a collaborative safety plan to keep them safe and alive.

The cost is $175 for Cathedral members and $250 for nonCathedral members. Payment in full is required at the time of registration. The payment is non-refundable by April 14; and before that date, there is a possibility of up to a 50% refund. Register at cathedralATL.org/ASIST. For questions, please contact the Rev. Canon Cathy Zappa.

Please join us for a contemplative Third Monday of March. We’ll begin 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 Veriditastrained 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 3rd Monday at the Cathedral. Come to one, or both – and bring a friend! Questions? Contact Jeannie Mahood, jmahood@cathedralATL.org or 404-365-1031.
