Faith Curriculum Library: Tapestry of Faith: Miracles: A Multigenerational Program on Living in Awe and Wonder

Spiritual Preparation

Take five minutes to center yourself. Think about miracles, in particular the miracle of mysteries that science has not yet explained.

Find a comfortable position, and take three deep breaths. Feel the details of your body: where it is touching the chair, how your feet feel on the floor, the sensations of your breathing.

Think of the participants you have led in this group. Recall each of their faces. Out of the billions of people on the face of this earth, you have had these experiences with this special group of people. Thank them each in your mind.

Now recall memories of the last sessions. Think of sharing stories, experiments, shining moments of insight, connection, and fun.

How has this program stretched you? How has it touched you? How has it challenged you? What has happened in your life since it began? Can any aspect of your experience here be called “miraculous?”
