Writing For Discernment 

Participants will be invited to explore through writing their responses to questions based on the ministry

theme of the month. It will offer opportunities for self-discovery, being witnessed by others,
and for spiritual discernment. 
Ideas and questions will be sent prior to each meeting that will serve as
impetus for writing that will be read during the meeting. We will also do some brief writing
from prompts during the meeting each month. There will be time to share your
writings and people will be able to share what was most meaningful for them
from the meeting. It is based very much on the format of a chalice circle, but the sharing is
done by reading what has been written.

Bettye Barclay worked for many years as a psychotherapist and led a variety of

workshops including career choice, stress management, journal writing, and meditation.

This is a recurring meeting with members expected to register in advance and attend each month. Please email
