  • Read more about Dive below surface this Holy Week

Contemplate This - Jesus was a teacher. All those who chose to follow him were invited to see things differently. To wake up to what is really there. For me, that is the invitation to contemplation. Holy Week is a solemn time to take time. I'd invite you to make sitting in contemplation a priority during these days leading up to and following Easter.
