The Georgetown Ecumenical Wholeness Service continues in-person services in 2021-2022, with its sixth gathering on February 27, 2022. This season, we will meet at San Gabriel Presbyterian Church, Georgetown Texas. All services are open to the public.
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. Communion is offered to all in attendance, with pre-packaged and gluten-free elements available.
About the meditations: Our subject for the coming season is, “The Lord’s Prayer.” Brief homilies will be prepared by area ministers, and guided by a senior pastor. Scripture will be selected for meditation based on each topic. 2021-2022 topics are:
| September 26 | Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy Name. | Rev. Steve Buchele | |
| October 24 | Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. | Rev. Mary Powell | |
| November 21 | Give us this day our daily bread. | Jim Deuser | |
| December 12 | And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. | Rev. Dr. Ann Hagmann | |
| January 23 | And lead us not into temptation. | Rev. Mary Powell | |
| February 27 | But deliver us from evil. | Rev. Vicki Joy McClure | |
| March 27 | For Thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory. | Rev. John Clifford | |
| April 24 | Now and forever | Jim Deuser | |
| May 22 | Amen | Rev. Dr. Ann Hagmann |
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 YouTube playlist.
About COVID-19 and safety: All are welcome at the Georgetown Ecumenical Wholeness Service. In the year, we will respect those who wish to worship in traditional ways by offering a well-ventilated, flexible worship space where social distancing and close seating are both available.
We hope to see you, our friends and neighbors, in 2021-2022.
