The Stranger Reflects
Further thoughts on the congress will be posted under this heading one to two weeks hence.
In the meanwhile, for those of you in Edmonton area: You are invited to an experiential, missional focused, spiritually formational alternative worship service. A group I lead, Interface Worship, has an event on Saturday, Nov. 21 at 7:00, at St. Paul’s Anglican – 145 st & Stony Plain Road. For details…
Reign of Christ the King: Interface Worship and St. Paul’s Anglican church will close the church year and celebrate the Reign of Christ the King with an alternative worship service exploring the themes of ‘God rules from the wood of the Cross‘ and ‘Our adoption into God’s Royal Family”. This service will include poetry by Mark Polet, graphic art by Reverend Thomas Brauer, prophetic painting by Lori Youngman, music led by Kathleen Pate, the Altarwalk devotional exercise, meditative time, open art tables, and the extensive use of original symbols, rituals, and imagery. The Eucharistic liturgy allows worshippers to embody the themes in a unique sacramental ritual of enduring quality and significance.
Interface Worship blends ancient spirituality with innovative expressions to create spiritually formational worship experiences. “The Reign of Christ the King” is part of the Throne Room series, which celebrates major points in the church year. Other Throne Room services include Epiphany, and the Rending of the Veil (Easter), and a fourth is in development. 2009-10 is St. Paul’s sixth year of hosting Interface Services.
Saturday, Nov. 21. Doors open at 6:30, service 7:00 – 8:45, at St. Paul’s Anglican. 145 St. & Stony Plain Road
