The Georgetown Ecumenical Wholeness Service is a candlelight, contemplative prayer service that meets onsite monthly at any of its
Williamson County partner churches. This season, we meet at
San Gabriel Presbyterian Church, Georgetown Texas with meditations centered around the topic “Pursuing Peace.”
All services are open to the public. 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 “Pursuing Peace.” Brief homilies will be prepared by area ministers, and guided by a senior pastor. Scripture will be selected for meditation based on each topic. 2023-2024 topics are:
| September 24 | Love Your Neighbor | |
| October 22 | Be Not Afraid | |
| November 19 | From Anger to Peace | |
| December 17 | Peace for All | |
| January 28 | Peace Within | |
| February 25 | Forgiving Peace | |
| March 24 | Believing in Peace | |
| April 28 | Power of Peace | |
| May 26 | Responsible Peace | | |
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. While COVID continues to challenge us, we will provide for in-person worship with a well-ventilated, flexible space where social distancing and close seating are both possible. For those in quarantine, livestream worship is available.
We hope to see you, our friends and neighbors, in 2023-2024.
