Lectio & Pete Rollins is back in town!

Lectio divina this Wednesday @ St. Marks ~ 10 a.m.

If you have never experienced lectio, consider taking 40 mintues of your day to focus on the biblical text with a group of people who are following Jesus.

It's not a difficult practice; it won't make you uncomfortable. Our time together will simply center you on the biblical text.

~ When you arrive at the gate, push the speaker button and let the receptionist know that you are with the emergent west michigan people. She'll gladly let you into the parking lot.

Pete Rollins is back in town this week. He is here to participate in the Calvin Symposium on Worship. He will be participating in that event this Thursday.
