Circle Service
Saturday at 5:30 PM
The Circle Service is a service for people who are hungering for new images
of God, for those who want to expand their experience of the Mystery that lives
in and through us. It is rooted firmly in the Episcopal tradition, with
Scriptures and Eucharistic liturgy at its heart, and yet stretching and reaching
for an expansion of language, music and structure.
We encourage community over hierarchy, and egalitarian participation with
planning and executing ideas.
The Circle Service is a service that welcomes YOU to join hands with us--to
attend, to participate, and to grow with us as we dance together to an ever
expansive relationship with our God.
Taize Contemplative Eucharist
The Circle Service will be presenting a contemplative Eucharist on the first
Saturday of the month. In this service, words are kept to a minimum to help us
create space for God to enter. There is a 20 minute period of silence during the
service which further opens us to receiving the Eucharist. We use the simple,
yet profound Taize chants to further take us into the mystery of the Eucharist.
There are also silent prayers for healing with the clergy.
In the sweet territory of silence we touch the mystery.
It's the place of reflection and contemplation,
and it's the place where we can connect with the deep knowing,
to the deep wisdom way.
The Circle Service happens each Saturday at 5:30 PM at:
Saint Mary's Episcopal Church
