Description

As seekers, we come together to explore where God works in and through us on our life’s journey in the silence, writing what God reveals alone and with others. We support one another by listening deeply, sharing from the heart, and seeking to know what we don’t already know. We gather in support of one another’s spiritual journey.

 Together we discern the movement of God through Scriptio Divina, “sacred writing,” using: a diary prompt, a literary exercise, a holy scripture, an inspiring poem, a photograph or painting, and imaginative prayer. We write. We share. We listen.

You are invited to write and listen deeply in the community of others, to “wander and discover—into the unknown.”  Diary Scribblers WORDshop is a contemplative listening circle that combines the power of meditation and sacred writing for participants who desire to give voice to what has been growing within.
