Lenten version
During the season of Lent, we have a tendency to slow things down.  To be a tad more intentional.

So during these “40 days” we will be adding Soup and Psalms in person at SPEC each Wednesday at 12pm.  When we gather, we’ll read a particular Psalm (the same one that will come up in the weekend worship) and ask ourselves a few questions and then take time in prayer.

So I’m inviting you to do the same thing.  Join us in person if you can (4007 Main St, Eggertsville NY 14226).  But if you can’t, join us in spirit through email.

Here is our Psalm for the week: Psalm 107.  Read it through once, giving yourself a chance to breathe after, and then read it one more time.  
 Psalm 107
1O give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; for his steadfast love endures forever.2Let the redeemed of the Lord say so, those he redeemed from trouble3and gathered in from the lands, from the east and from the west, from the north and from the south.17Some were sick through their sinful ways, and because of their iniquities endured affliction;18they loathed any kind of food, and they drew near to the gates of death.19Then they cried to the Lord in their trouble, and he saved them from their distress;20he sent out his word and healed them, and delivered them from destruction.21Let them thank the Lord for his steadfast love, for his wonderful works to humankind.22And let them offer thanksgiving sacrifices, and tell of his deeds with songs of joy.Then ask yourself the following:
1.  What caught your attention?
2.  What questions does this bring up?
3.  What do you hear God saying to us through it?

Feel free to share any of our thoughts with me and if you email [email protected] before 11am Wednesdays, I will share them with the in-person group.

Enjoy Lent.  

Lord, speak to me.  Amen

Still in One Peace,
