    Saturday, May 7, 2022; 9:30am to 12:30pm with Ven. Megan Collings-Moore
    Join the Ven. Megan Collings-Moore for a morning exploring what prayer might look like in times of transition. The morning will contain keynote addresses and breakout discussion groups. There will also be resources shared, as well as a chance to reflect on your own experiences and wisdom. Session #1 - Prayer & truth telling: How does prayer help us discern what is true? In a world where truth seems to mean many different things, how can we trust G-d?  Session #2 - Prayer & perspective: When life is hard, what is the role of prayer in helping us lament our losses, but also pulling us beyond ourselves? Can prayer help us see as G-d sees?
