Candles, scripture, song and chant make up the liturgy of this ecumenical service. Taizé this week is held at Memorial Presbyterian Church. Service begins at 5:30pm.
As the available daylight decreases with each day, let the light of the candles and the spirit of the song further prepare you for what’s to come.

A light salad will be provided, or you are welcome to bring your own lunch if this is your regular lunch time.
The tradition of fourth Fridays started a few years ago, and has been a place for cross connection between departments. Stop by Sabin House for this staff and faculty discussion experience on September 27.
Dean Morgan-Clement’s discussion topic:
Peripheral Vision: I have up horseback riding again and one of the lessons I am relearning the art of using peripheral vision. To keep your center and balance on a horse you need to activate a “wide field of vision.”
I am inviting you to bring stories and reflections from your own life about the paradoxical practice of activating peripheral vision and ways that it might allow us all to keep our center and balance in new ways.
Please feel comfortable joining a student led guided meditation on Friday, September 13 at 9:30am at Center for Spiritual & Religious Life (Sabin House).
We’ve scheduled 15 minutes,
but you may take as long as you need after that.
Students, staff, faculty. All are welcome.
Students. Gather.
Get there early.
Employees of Lawrence are welcome to join in the discussion and enjoy a light lunch as provided by the Office of Spiritual and Religious Life. Or, bring your own lunch and connect with your fellow faculty and staff.
