Cultivating Spiritual Life


Time & Space
Wednesday Nights - 6:00 - aprox. 6:30 PM


an opportunity to simply take some time to
quietly listen to music

reflect on a passage of scripture that will be shared

respond in a way that feels comfortable for you
(journal, sit quietly and think or pray, fashion a piece of clay,
or perhaps just listen and be there)

No pressure, no expectations, no hidden agendas
just an opportunity to intentionally pause awhile in God's presence
in a place away from the other things
that can distract or compete for our attention

(Time & Space meets in the Music Room at the Calimesa Church)
