Creative Praying with The St. John’s Bible – Saturday, August 19, 2023
Enjoy a day of contemplation and creativity with the aid of The St John’s Bible. The St. John’s Bible beautifully presents both Scripture and Illumination, and both will be used as we prayerfully reflect and respond from our creative selves. Our starting point will be selected sections of Scripture (lectio). Illuminations (visio) from the St. John’s Bible will aid us in going deeper into the Scripture. We will then be invited to visually express what is in our hearts.
Very simple art materials will be used in a non-threatening manner while focusing on the process rather than the end product, and NO previous art experience is necessary. Paint, oil pastels, collage materials, colored pencils, and paper will be provided; participants may wish to bring any art materials they have available, such as colored gel pens, markers, glue, scissors, calligraphy pens and ink. Please register no later than August13.
St. Benedict’s Center has a Heritage Edition of The St. John’s Bible and illuminations from it on display. To read more about the Bible’s calligraphy and artwork, explore The Saint John’s Bible website.

Cost: $57.87 (Includes program fee, materials, meal and taxes)
