Spring?
We've been blessed with amazing weather these last few days -- today not so much. It seems like life is often that way -- we have times where all seems to go well, the sun is shining, the air is soft and we feel energized and ready to take on what ever comes our way. Then our natural need for some quiet time steps in and we find ourselves faced with a cold, cloudy day. We tend to judge the cold and cloudy days as a disappointment, but are they really? Can we learn to stop and attend to the graces and the beauty that may be found when the brightness of the sun is muted?Evelyn Underhill speaks of mysticism as unity with reality. Today seems like a good day for us to focus on reality and how in touch we are with it.Blessings,Carol
Times for Prayer and Reflection
We offer a variety of prayer opportunities on our campus --
The Meditation Room, Marian 204, is open for use by faculty, staff, and students. You may find it a great place to go for some quiet time, or you may wish to schedule a prayer group. The space is yours, let me know how I can be of assistance.
If you would like to make a prayer request you may do so through a direct e-mail to me chiggins@marylhurst.edu, by putting a note under my door -- Marian 202, by placing a request in one of the envelops located throughout the campus, or by posting a response to my blog.
Weekly Mass at noon on Mondays is at the heart of all we do at Marylhurst. We invite you to join us if you are able. Mass is also available at 11:00 Tuesday - Friday in the chapel at Mary's Woods. Mary's Woods has Sunday Mass at 11:00 -- for students involved in weekend classes here on campus.
How else can we meet your needs? Let me know and I'll see what I can do to be of service.
