Join us at the House of Prayer as we prepare for the season of Advent together. The day will last from 9am to 2pm, and you're welcome to join us for the whole day or just part of it. At the beginning of each hour, there will be a short reading and chant; for the rest of the day, we'll sit together in silent contemplation. (You're welcome to practice any form of silent prayer or meditation you choose.) We will provide a simple soup lunch at 1pm.
