The music of Godspell will be incorporated into our weekly worship during Lent. For those unfamiliar with the show, it invites the showrunners to set the story of Matthew’s gospel in modern day. As the original play is over 50 years old, this show is based on the 2012 update. We’ll watch the movie (which celebrates its 50th anniversary this year and features flower children and clowns) later this season.
PraXis returns TONIGHT at 6:45pm & continues every 1st and 3rd Wednesday through May 15th
“Christ will exalt in my body” Phil. 1:20
PraXis provides mind, body, spirit coaching at the intersection of evidence-based wellness and Christian spiritual practice. For over a year, Cornelius Swart and Jamie DeRuyter have led the PraXis classes at BCC, combining movement, mindfulness, and prayer in their unique sessions.
Sessions include 30-40 minutes of light to moderate yoga-style movement, followed by 10-20 minutes of contemplative silence. Each night is wrapped in prayer and scripture readings.
For more info visit PraXiswellness.center, check out their blog, get the full class schedule on Facebook or watch a session video on YouTube.
These classes are donation based. Drop-ins are welcomed. If you have questions, you can contact Cornelius and Jamie directly at info@praxiswellness.center
