This service is designed to provide worshipers with space to pray and reflect on the needs in their lives, whether they are seeking healing or wholeness for themselves, a loved one, or the earth. Incorporating written reflection, prayer stations, and a visual meditation, the service flows through 3 major Movements:
1. MOVEMENT ONE | Letting Go of Anxiety and Busyness to Cultivate Calm
2. MOVEMENT TWO | Letting Go of Fear to Cultivate Confidence in God
3. MOVEMENT THREE | Letting Go of Doubt to Cultivate Hope
We encourage you to purchase and show the film, “The Wisdom of the Fig Tree” in Movement Three for the visual meditation. If you do not have access to screens in worship, this liturgy download includes the final image, “Where the Fruit Lies,” which you can print and use for the visual meditation instead.
