A
meditative liturgy for the evening, held at All Saints. This is a time of worship built around music, prayer, readings and stillness, led by Gord Johnson and Larry Campbell. Be warned ahead of time: there is no communion, no sermon, no coffee hour, no big social focus… just an opportunity come away into the stillness, move into a space of deep openness to the Spirit of God, and then go quietly into the evening’s darkness. Many of the songs in which we enfold ourselves during Hear the Silence have simple melodies and profound lyrics which are sung over and over… the repetition anchoring us in prayer.
