Verses of the Soul: A Virtual Poetry Journey

Immerse yourself in a transformative journey of spiritual reflection and poetic discovery during this season of Lent, where words become windows to the soul’s deepest longings. Join us as we explore the sacred landscape of poetry, creating a contemplative space where imagination, prayer, and community intersect, inviting you to experience your spiritual journey in a profoundly meaningful way.

This time is one of longing for insights, a reflective period to quiet our hearts.  How do we make this a special time, while managing our daily obligations?  Poetry serves as an avenue to plumb the depths of our souls in very few words.  Poetry creates space for the imagination, providing hope in the unseen and inexplicable.  Poetry emerges from parts of us that ordinary language fails to grasp and leads us to unexpected places.

We will gather virtually as a community and read one or two poems each week to contemplate, pray with, and discuss in order to embark on a spiritual pilgrimage and prayer practice at this holy time of year.  No prior knowledge of poetry or ability to write poetry necessary.
