Yesterday was the last of the six evenings during Lent that we spent Exploring Prayer. We have enjoyed our time together, and all of us have felt a deepening of our prayer lives as a result of our explorations.
The Praying Hands above are carved from Olive Wood in Palestine. They are 6" (150cm) high, cost £12, and are available from the Hadeel shop in Edinburgh.
In one sense it was sad that our group had come to the end of its time together. However, we do have more to look forward to. We have been contributing prayer material to the Easter Labyrinth project, and are looking forward to experiencing the Labyrinth on Friday 10th and Saturday 11th of April.
On the plus side, the group has decided that we would like to continue meeting - both to continue learning about prayer, and to pray for our congregation, the parish, and the world.
We probably won't continue to meet on Wednesdays, but the details of when we meet, and how we organise, have yet to be decided. We do hope to have the first of our new meetings on Thursday 7th May 2009.
