DESCRIPTION:Spiritual Companion Groups\n6 Fridays\, April 24 - May 29\, 10 
 - 11 am (following the 9:30 Meditation) \nSt. Thomas\, Chilliwack \n\n\n
 \n\n\n\n\n\nWe are excited to offer a new program at the Centre at St. Tho
 mas! \nThe Circle of Grace regular weekly gathering will open with a short
  spiritual practice and then form in smaller circles of 3 – 4 people to 
 enjoy small group connecting.\nWhat are Spiritual Companion Groups? In th
 is life God is our goal\, Jesus is our path\, and we are Spirit enlivened 
 pilgrims. But we are not on this journey alone. We have been given compani
 ons along the way to help\, encourage\, and listen with us. Spiritual Comp
 anions is a small group program to connect with other pilgrims of faith to
  listen and pray together.\nSpiritual Companion Groups gather regularly w
 ith a set time of listening and sharing followed by a time of visiting. It
  is a good way to get to know people in a deeper way and learn how to be t
 he supports we are called to be in each other’s lives.\nWhat happens in 
 a Spiritual Companion Group? Once everyone has arrived the group follows 
 this simple plan: The Group prays an opening prayer\, practices a simple s
 piritual practice\, then each member of the group shares with a time for r
 esponse by the group. The Group prays a closing prayer. Coffee/tea! \nWha
 t do I share in a Spiritual Companion Group? You share your heart. Perhap
 s you answer one of these questions:\nWhat was the best part of my week an
 d why did it affect me so positively?\nWhat was the worst part of my week 
 and why did it affect me so badly?\nWhen I think of God\, I think of… Wh
 en I think of my life I think of…\nThis sounds really personal. It is. B
 ut groups hold the spiritual discipline of listening\, receiving\, non-jud
 gemental affirmation and confidentiality.\nA group can be chosen or given.
  If you have a group of people who would like to do this together\, this 
 can form a group. Or you can join with others who are looking for a group.
