Community Corner

Celtic Evensong and Communion

Join us on Sunday evenings at 5:30 for a bit of stillness, candles, gentle music, meditation, poetry, eucharist, and healing. 

Christianity in the Celtic tradition has always seen Jesus as the one who leads us back to the unity of all things and to our true selves.  Celtic Christianity sees God present in all creation, including humanity, meaning we are participants in God.  We are not fallen creatures alienated from God, but are already a part of God, having the divine presence within us from our birth.  Celtic tradition calls us to an awareness of the divine presence in our being and all around us, in what is easy and pleasing as well as what is hard and demanding of us.  Rather than a dualistic view in which much is said about separating good from bad, the Celtic approach encourages us to practice being aware of God in all facets of our lives.  Jesus lived in the awareness of the presence of God.  We gather on Sunday evenings as a community to practice awareness of God, in the silence, in the words of scripture and poetry, in our hearts, in light and music, in bread and wine. 
Give yourself the gift of peace.  Join us on any Sunday evening beginning November 10
You are always welcome at St. Aidan’s.
