The Spiritual Formation ministry team is taking the summer off -- as usual. Go enjoy the sunshine, the cool rain, and the rest that only a vacation provides.


We will resume on September 8th with a 1:00 time of prayer at Wedgwood Presbyterian Church.


The team was convicted at our June meeting of the need for prayer for our world. Our season of prayer for 2009-10 will be prayers for justice. Look for more information as September approaches. We will keep our usual meeting time -- the Second Tuesday of each month, 1-2 PM.


We are also planning a retreat for early November. We'll post the dates once they are confirmed. It will be a single day retreat, offered both on a Friday and Saturday. It is our hope that it will fit into our busy calendars on one or the other date.


Our network of Presbyterian Directors keeps meeting. It's good to see the connection among people who share a common ministry. The next meeting will be Tuesday, October 13th at noon.


And now it's time to go pick some berries ...


Earth’s crammed with heaven,

and every common bush afire with God;

and only he who sees takes off his shoes;

the rest sit round it and pluck blackberries.


Elizabeth Barrett Browning, from the collection “Aurora Leigh”
