Save the date: Sunday July 3 (hopefully) in person hybrid worship; for local Seattle folks
We know the first-of-the-month Festival Sunday for in person hybrid worship is a long holiday weekend… but maybe you are avoiding traffic, so come on down to church in person! Or if you are too many miles out to do so, we can’t wait to see our beloved community on zoom as well!
Sun. July 3
10:30am: Festival Sunday, first of the month: (we HOPE! to be) in person hybrid worship in sanctuary (or on zoom, as you like)with Rev. Rich, Rev. Lauren, Elliot, Yigit.
Keystone congregation voted to add in person worship together once/month; and our commitment is to ensure that no one has to miss church, because of that! See you in zoom or in the sanctuary, if community rate of covid allows. Call Keystone with any questions: 206-632-6021

Wed. June 1 contemplative reflection for this coming Sunday's scripture
Lectio Divina Practice
We ready for Pentecost Sunday June 5: Genesis 11: 1-9
What is Lectio Divina Practice at Keystone?
Come spend a couple minutes in centering time, as we reflect on the lectionary scripture for the upcoming Sunday.
3 of 4 Wednesdays Keystone offers a mid-week pause: a contemplative, prayerful practice at 6 pm on zoom.
Below is what the flow is like at Lectio Divina practice when we are together, or try on your own (Let Rita and Lauren know any questions!)
2 times listening to scripture Reading and close at 6:20 pm.
Simply bring yourself and any bible! (The scripture reading will also be posted in the zoom chat.)
6pm- Welcome
Silence x 3 mins with a bell to bring us back.
Make yourself comfortable as you settle in for a time of quiet prayer. Breathe deeply to settle your body and your mind, becoming aware that you are in God's presence.
Listen to the first person read Scripture (feel free to volunteer at the start.) What word or phrase speaks to your heart? When the group is invited to share, speak that work or phrase aloud.
Listen to the second person read the Scripture passage aloud, spend a few moments in quiet reflection on what God may be saying to you through this word or phrase. When the group is invited to speak, share what this word or phrase means to you. A question, or a reflection? How you feel God may be calling you to respond.
We end with a prayer of thanksgiving for our encounter with God's word.
6:20 pm- Peace, Close.
(At 6:25 pm- Those who wish can greet and visit with folks, coming in to zoom, starting the next program, 6:30-7:30 pm.)
