Sabbath is a loving command, a gift.

We spend so much of our lives building: building careers, building homes, building the next thing on the list. Ecclesiastes 3 says there is a season for that. But it also reminds us there is a season for planting: for putting something small into the ground, trusting it to grow in its own time, and stepping back from our own striving long enough to let it.

You are invited to bring that same intention we so easily give to building, and place it on rest instead. What if we built rhythms the way we build anything else we care about? With attention. With practice. With repetition, over time?

Join us for a three hour Sabbath invitation integrating teaching, scripture, silence and a planting activity where the practice itself becomes an embodied prayer experience. Light bites, drinks, plant and painting/potting supplies included.

Our time together will include:

A talk from therapist, Kymáre Hutchinson, on rest and the care of body and soul
A guided contemplative planting activity, held as a space of prayer and reflection
Conversation and reflection
Light bites and drinks
A beautiful potted plant to bring home with you!

This gathering is co-hosted with Kymáre Hutchinson, a therapist and long time friend of Wonder Aloud
