RSVP for Lent: At the Threshold of Transformation
media release: This year, Holy Wisdom Monastery offers "Lent: At the Threshold of Transformation" a five-session series during Lent. Both online and in-person options are available. This experience is provided at no cost to participants, but donations are appreciated.
This series will be a deep immersion into the story of Paul’s encounter with Christ as told in Acts 9 – part Bible study, part meditation, parts lectio and visio divina, part small group sharing and reflection.
Participants are invited into an observance of the Lenten season as a threshold time. The focus will be on “liminal spaces” – those times when we are in-between, in-between “how things used to be” and “how things are yet to be,” in-between the persons we once knew ourselves to be and the new beings yet to be known. We all feel ourselves at thresholds at some point in life – thresholds of aging, of life transitions, of changing political winds, of climate change, of other losses and griefs. The study of Paul’s story provides a spiritual map for balancing the demand to release and surrender with the wise discernment of what is essential to keep and to hold fast as we cross these thresholds.
