October summary

Mosaic Community Night is a midweek, intergenerational gathering for fellowship, dinner, prayer, and study at Saint Philip’s. All are welcome every Wednesday.

During October, parishioner, professional writer, and workshop facilitator, Matti Bowen led four weeks of reading and discussion about the places where spiritual life and art intersect in our lives. She invited participants to consider how we define Christian art, what makes a Christian artist, and how that work can transform how we understand our faith.

Each week participants took home a series of creative prompts to challenge and stretch their ideas of spiritual practice and personal creativity. Links to each week’s prompts are at the bottom of this article.

Stay tuned for details in next week’s Bell & Tower about what November’s formation topics will be.

Mosaic will be suspended on Wednesday, November 2, but all are encouraged to attend the All Soul’s service at 7:00pm that evening. (See related story.)

Schedule
4:30pm Hospitality teams meets to make dinner
5:15pm Evening Prayer in the Chapel
6:00pm Dinner
6:30pm-7:30pm Christian formation in the West Gallery

You are welcome to participate for the entire evening or just a portion. If you don’t drive at night or kids need to get to bed, feel welcome to attend for prayer and dinner. If you’re running late after work, then join the group at 6:30pm for study. Whatever works for you is perfect.

If you have questions, please contact Peter.Helman@StPhilipsTucson.org or Taylor.Devine@StPhilipsTucson.org.
