Sound Bath
6:45pm Friday, July 12th
Our Sound Bath returns this Friday, July 12th with special guest musician and sound healer Madhu Anziani. After a spinal cord injury that left him quadriplegic, Madhu used sound and energy healing to achieve a full recovery. He now offers the deeply healing modalities of music, vibration, divination, hypnotherapy and ceremony to communities around the world. You may learn more about Madhu by checking out his bio on our Eventbrite page.
Bring your favorite yoga mat, blanket, and pillow and take a deeply meditative sonic journey. Admittance for the church community is donation-based; $20 is suggested via cash, check, or Venmo. Doors open at 6:30 and close promptly at 7:00pm. Arrive by 6:45 to check in, find a spot, and get settled. Download our flyer and share to invite family and friends!
Western Jurisdictional Conference begins
The 2024 Western Jurisdictional Conference will be held on July 10-13, 2024, in Spokane, Washington. The theme is “Love Without Limits.” The conference will begin with missional engagement opportunities on Wednesday, July 10, at 9 a.m. PT. Opening worship, an episcopal address, and the first plenary session will follow at 1 p.m. The conference will conclude on Saturday afternoon (July 13) with a closing service at 1 p.m. If an episcopal election is necessary, this will be a Service of Consecration.
As we gather, we will have traveled from the eastern edge of Colorado, the islands of Hawaii, Guam, and Saipan in the west, from Alaska in the north, from Arizona in the south, and all places in between to reach this lovely region. We gather to live out and model our Western Jurisdiction vision: A home for all God’s people, gathered around a table of reconciliation and transformation: the Western Jurisdiction of The United Methodist Church is multicultural and inclusive, engaged in the life of its communities, with confident, effective lay and clergy leadership who, in diverse ministry settings, form disciples who live out the Good News of Jesus as global citizens.
We gather to consider what values we share as a jurisdiction, celebrate retirements, possibly elect new bishops to serve in our jurisdiction, and consider legislation that moves us toward living into our values and vision. You can register today and learn more about the Western Jurisdictional Conference on the following website: https://westernjurisdictionumc.org/wjc2024/
