Quiet Fellowship: Sabbath Rest

At  Quiet Fellowship, we welcome people of all faiths or no faith to  explore a deeper dimension of life in contemplative awareness. We are  especially open to authentic inquiry into aspects of spiritual living,  not shying away from existential issues and challenges of life's meaning  and purpose. A vibrant living faith is not afraid to doubt, to  interrogate, to question. It is even open to the possibility and reality  of not finding ready-made answers.

We aspire to build a community of grace and  wisdom that supports our personal journeys of faith, nurtures our  personal practice of contemplation, and weaves our personal stories and  insights into a tapestry of collective awakening and transformation in  Christ.

Sabbath Rest:

At this session we will explore the deep restedness we have in Christ. We approach this by allowing our minds to settle into this moment, bright and clear. From this vantage point, we are ready to have open contact with each moment of God's presence calling us unto Himself. We give thanks to the Lord who gives us life more abundantly. This is the life we touch whenever we step out of our egocentric world to restfully enter His ever abiding Presence. We can do so because He has given us the grace of Sabbath rest, enabling us to abide in Christ free from anxiety or insecurity. All of this is possible and certain only because God in Christ has incarnated and done a perfect completed work on the cross. This is the heart of the gospel.

We will commence our session with a short prayer, moving seamlessly into guided meditation, followed by reflective reading of a bible passage accompanied by deep silent listening. We will then share reflections, emerging questions and issues, and conclude with prayers (everyone is welcome to offer a prayer) and benediction.
