Lenten Journey is a personal, spiritual and creative experience offered in a community setting. Eight meditation centers provide an environment and instructions for a private and self-paced meditation on the Seven Last Words of Christ. In order to maintain the sacred space and silence of Lenten Journey, guests are welcomed and given a brief introduction to the meditation centers.
Each of the eight meditation centers provides a different meditation experience, while each center has instructions and materials necessary for the meditation suggested.
A simple journal is provided and instructions are given for journaling in order that guests may better remember the graces offered them. You may bring your own journal if you wish.
Guests take as long as they like at each station. If they are unable – due to time – to complete all eight stations, that is alright. Lenten Journey is set up for you to come and go at your convenience.
If guests need extra time between centers, want to remain in prayer or solitude after the eight meditations, or perhaps need to wait for a center to become available, they are invited to sit quietly in the Sanctuary, read their Bible, or go for a walk (in the daylight).
Lenten Journey is a simple, yet deep experience for participants. All hospitality ministers and guests are asked to maintain silence and respect the solitude of other participants.
