Prayer Request

LECTIO DIVINA

Lectio Divina for Monday, September 26, 2022.
All are welcome to join us as we continue to engage in the spiritual practice of Lectio Divina together as a community.

Our Scripture Lesson is Matthew 4:23-25.

We will gather via zoom for an intentional time of listening, reflecting, responding, and resting in the Word of God. We will meet on Mondays from 8-9 am.

Here are some details about Lectio Divina.

Lectio Divina, literally meaning “divine reading,” is an ancient practice of praying the Scriptures. During Lectio Divina, the person listens to the text of the Bible with the “ear of the heart,” as if he or she is in conversation with God, and God is suggesting the topics for discussion.

There are four movements for Lectio Divina:
1. Lectio: (Listening to the Word of God or Reading God’s Word)
2. Meditatio: (Reflecting on the Word of God)
3. Oratio: (Responding to the Word of God)
4. Contemplatio: (Resting in the Word of God)

“The session recommends for the congregation to take precautions to prevent the spread of COVID as we gather for worship, fellowship, and service. As an act of love for ourselves, of love for our neighbor, and our love of God, we will require masks to be worn indoors when the percentage of positivity for COVID in Charlotte County is greater than 15%. When the positivity rate for Charlotte County is less than 15%, we will encourage masks to be worn indoors. Each week, an email will be sent on Saturday evening to update everyone on the percentage of COVID positivity in Charlotte County and mask expectations based on the Florida COVID-19 Response webpage (https://floridahealthcovid19.gov). If you are not feeling well, strongly encourage you to join online from home. Click HERE for the current testing guidelines. We will have signage on the doors with the current percentage rates and mask needs for every indoor event with the congregation and for the community.”

COVID POSITIVITY RATE IS 14.3% as of September 16, 2022
FOR CHARLOTTE COUNTY
We also recognize that folks are really tired of wearing masks. With that, let us encourage one another during these times of weariness to respect one another as we all try our best to care for and love ourselves, our families, and our neighbors. The session will be revisiting this recommendation at our next session meeting and will share any updates. Overall, we feel everyone recognizing that COVID is with us for a bit longer and we are all trying to figure out a way forward.
