Lectio Divina is an ancient Christian practice of prayer and scripture reading intended to help us enter deeply into the presence of God and to increase our knowledge of God's Word. It is simply a method that enables us to experience the Living Christ in our hectic lives. When we reconnect with the Lord by listening to him, our lives take on new power and meaning.


Please join us for this wonderful practice! No prior experience necessary.
