Beginning in July, we will be offering art and craft workshops with The Crafty Pastor on the first and third Wednesdays from 6-7:30pm. These workshops will focus on a particular craft or art that connects in some way to spirituality. “Creative expression is one of the great ways we have of engaging in prayer and spiritual connection with God,” says Pastor Rosemary “It is sometimes easier to put ideas, feelings and expressions into a textile piece, sculpture, painting, drawing or other work of art or craft than it is to speak it into a formal prayer.”

Our first workshop will be Wednesday, July 7th and all of these activities are open to the whole community. This week we will be learning about the use of prayer beads in Christian prayer and spiritual devotion and making a set of prayer beats from polymer clay and other objects. There is a $5 charge for supplies. If you would like more information please call the church office 586-2084 or email us at shepherdofthehills@dnet.net

Hope to see you all there!
