DESCRIPTION:Bishop Susan Haynes invites you to participate in the Diocese of Southern Virginia’s second Matoaka Covenant celebration\, We Are All Related\, on October 26th from 9 a.m. – 4 p.m. at Chanco on the James. \nOne of the key tenants of our faith and of the Matoaka Covenant is to be in relationship with each other and to actively tend to those relationships.

Dr. Bradley Hauff\, Indigenous Missioner for the Episcopal Church\, will be leading several segments during the day. I look forward to our time of learning\, connection\, and exploration\, and hope you will join me for this day that is brought to you by The Repairers of the Breach Committee. \nRegistration is now open for a day that promises to be one of interaction\, education\, and celebration! \nRegister Now

SUMMARY:Thomas Merton: Finding the Gate to Paradise Everywhere
DESCRIPTION:Thomas Merton was a mystic giant. He wrote 50 books and 2\,000 poems in 27 years. The first printing of his autobiography\, The Seven Story Mountain\, in 1948 was planned for 7\,500 copies. It sold over 600\,000. By 1984\, more than 3\,000\,000 additional copies had sold. \nMerton invites God seekers to go deeper and wider as we discover the difference between our “True Self” and our “False Self.” As we let go of defining our self by power\, prestige\, and possessions and discover that we are more than what we do\, what people say about us\, and what we own\, we are then able to remember that we are made in God’s image–and with us God is well pleased. \nAs we discover the holy in us\, we become equipped to be a vehicle of the Good News by what we do\, by what we say\, and mostly by who we are. Merton wrote\, “At the center of our being is a point of nothingness which is untouched by sin and by illusions\, a point of truth\, a point or spark which belongs to God.” Therefore\, “to be a saint is to be myself.” \nAs we go deeper in our faith and remember who we are in God’s eyes\, we are able to discover that we can connect with the core of other religions. In his final talk before his death\, Merton said\, “This new language of prayer has to come out of something which transcends all our traditions and comes out of the immediacy of love.” Merton himself had one of his deepest mystical experiences gazing at the rock statue of the Buddha in Polonnaruwa\, Sri Lanka. \nThis half-day retreat will include a presentation\, time for silent meditation\, and a plenary. Our focus will be Merton’s invitation to live a cruciform life: one that is vertically connected to God and horizontally connected to our fellow souls and to “this fragile earth our island home.” \nThis event is hosted by Contemplative Outreach of Maryland and Washington. Bishop Porter Taylor will lead this half-day retreat. Bishop Taylor is the retired bishop of Western North Carolina and recently served two years as assisting bishop in the Diocese of Virginia.

SUMMARY:The Church as Movement
DESCRIPTION:The Dioceses of Virginia and Southern Virginia have come together to cosponsor a free two-day conference for anyone interested in church planting\, church revitalization\, or shifting the paradigms of existing churches from one of attraction to one centered on mission and discipleship. \nAuthor\, Speaker\, and National Director of the V3 Church Planting Movement\, JR Woodward\, will invite us to consider why our current paradigms of Church need to change and offer guidance on ways to bring about such change. This conference will provide space to pray\, dream\, and discern how God may be calling you to think of and be the Church differently within your own Episcopal context. \nIndividuals (both lay and ordained) and church groups are invited to attend. \n			\n				Register Here
