Wed Nov 4th : A SUFI GARDEN : 7.30 - 9.00pm
A online Zoom group meeting with Karim Hadden and Alan Heeks.
Our Theme is: GREETING LIFE WITH GRATITUDE:
Rumi reminds us that sorrow prepares us for joy and compares being human to being a guest house where, he advises, we should be grateful for whoever comes because each has been sent as a guide from beyond.
In this evening, through our usual combination of dance, song and embodied spiritual practices we will both acknowledge our sorrows and open ourselves to the transformative power of gratitude to harmonize the music of our lives and increase our capacity to live in community with more joy and courage.

CHANTING IN DEPTH: Monday Nov 9th, 23rd from 4.00- 5.15 pm:
A series of sessions on Mondays via Zoom or in person at our house in Tyberton, Herefordshire. We will learn and deepen into a small number of devotional chants drawn from a variety of sources and inspired by the treasury of the world’s spiritual traditions. We sing the same chants each time and then take a break before starting a new cycle. Recordings and word sheets will be provided.
Everyone is welcome. No special skills are needed, just a willingness to open the heart to the blessings of these sacred songs.
There is no fixed charge but donations are requested. Once costs are covered the donations go to the charity Children of Peace. Last year we raised over £1000 for them.

Sat Nov 28th : ARAMAIC LORD'S PRAYER 10.30am - 4.30pm:
Join us in Vowchurch Village Hall Herefordshire for a prayer – dance cycle sung in Jesus’ original language of Aramaic led by Susanne Wombacher.
Come and discover the many layered richness of Jesus’ mother tongue and thus find a renewed and expanded understanding of our oldest of Christian prayers. When we open the Aramaic window we hear the narrative of our human story, find the map of our shared journey and pray the Prayer of Unity. Let us join the caravan and together follow Yeshua’s path to the wellspring of eternal wisdom.
Susanne is a trained leader of the Dances of Universal Peace and a practising Christian who has loved and worked with the Aramaic prayer for many years.
All welcome – no experience needed.
Contributions: £15 to £25 sliding scale
Please book in advance.
Bring vegetarian food to share for lunch.
