The Gifts of Winter: A Quiet Day for Advent

Saturday 30th November, 10.30am-4pm,
St Columba’s by the Castle, Johnston Terrace EDINBURGH

Cost £35 (£25 concession, or pay what you can) includes lunch, coffee & cake

 

Take time out, as Advent begins, to consider the blessings of the season of winter – bright frosty mornings, the robin’s song, the invitation to slow down and recoup our energies. If we enter fully into this season, it has much to show us about rest, resilience, faithfulness, mystery, and the God who is with us in the dark as much as in the light. 

The day will draw on a mixture of reflective approaches and creative material including art, poetry and music, and will include guided reflections and individual quiet time.

Anyone interested in joining
A Wee Art Group on Zoom?

We meet on a Monday afternoon mid-month from 2pm – 5pm, to get a few tips on drawing or
painting, to share a time of meditation on a Biblical theme, do a drawing or painting which
reflects our thoughts, have a chat with the leader individually,
then share our thoughts and pictures together as a group.

The leader is Margaret Stein,
a retired Church of Scotland minister who also trained as an art teacher.

If you are interested, email Margaret … margaretestein78@gmail.com

 

Return to the presence of God  
Refresh, Rest and Restore 

 

Taking its name from Isaiah 30:15, R&R is a weekly contemplative group,
set in the context of silence, prayer and reflection
to encourage spiritual growth and a deepening relationship with God. 

 

Meeting content

We begin with a quiet time of ‘stilling’ to put aside the busyness of the day and simply ‘be’ and rest in God.  This is followed by a prayerful review of the day, a led reflection and quiet time. 

R& R is led by a team of four, all guided by the Ignatian tradition and we particularly encourage those just starting out on
their Ignatian spiritual journey.

Weekly meetings

Meetings are weekly, every Wednesday, online at 19.30 for one hour, with a monthly face to face meeting in
Edinburgh.
