The Georgetown Ecumenical Wholeness Service starts a new season in 2019-2020, with the first service on September 22: Choosing God. We will continue to gather at, First United Methodist Church, Georgetown, Texas. Open to the public, childcare provided.
As before, we will pray together by combining two very special types of worship services: the Service of Healing and Wholeness and Taizé Common Prayers. We are a diverse community of area Christians, and these services are open to all who would come. Songs are sung from the Community of Taizé. Opportunities are given for intercessory prayer and the lighting of candles. A time is set aside for anointing by ministers. Open Communion is served.
About the meditations: Our subject for the coming season is, “Loving God: Finding the Sacred in the Ordinary.” Brief homilies will be prepared by area ministers, and guided by a senior pastor. Scripture will be selected for meditation based on each topic. 2019-2020 topics are:
September 22 | Choosing God |
October 27 | Changing Seasons |
November 24 | Sharing God |
December 8 | God With Us |
January 26 | Renewal |
February 23 | Relationships |
March 22 | Desert Time |
April 26 | Forgiveness & Grace |
May 24 | Answering God’s Call |
About the songs: Taizé Prayer chants are congregational, made of short phrases that are repeated for ease of participation. In our services, we always sing in English, but for an idea of how the songs sound, please enjoy this playlist of all of the songs we like to use.
We hope to see you, our friends and neighbors, in 2019-2020.
