Wednesday Night Sharing CircleWednesday nights 8pm via the standard Zoom link Spirituality is a personal thing. Even if we ascribe to a common creed or practice, we each use different words to express our experience and we each come at faith and Spirit from a different personal history. On Wednesday nights at St. Augustine's we are learning to value the aboriginal/recovery sharing circle as a tool to help one another on our journey. Anyone may drop in at any time to this sharing circle. We sometimes follow a book, but design the evenings in such a way that someone can join in even if they have not done that reading. Please come on time if you can. We begin at 8pm and end as close to 9:30pm as we can. If you need the Zoom link or information on how to access this online circle, please contact us at the office.
