A
TIME FOR PRAYER
TAIZE PRAYER
Come join us for an hour of
music and prayer. This hour of prayer is based on the ecumenical
Christian prayer. Taizé prayer uses simple chants
based on the Scriptures and periods of silence in a candlelit,
meditative environment to create a peaceful setting in which
we can encounter the mystery of God. The music has a way
of continuing our prayer in the silence of our hearts when
we are resting or working even when we are unaware of it.
Join us Thursday evening, September 18 from 7:00pm to 8:00pm
Additional
dates are October 16, November 13, December 4, 11, 18 (Advent), January
15, February 26, March 5, 12, 19, 26 and April 2 (Lent) and May 7.
All times are 7:00pm to 8:00pm
Rooms
are available for small faith group sharing before
or after prayer service. Contact office
to reserve a room.
There
is No Charge and no registration necessary for Taizé Prayer
.

"No Life is Ordinary: A Reflection Day for Senior Adults
Facilitated by Holy Names Sisters Rosemary Thielman and Roberta Lamanna, Co-Directors of Wisdomworks.
The reflection day will focus on God's
invitation to continue our spiritual growth at this stage of our lives.
Through looking at some elder stories recently recorded in
Idaho by Wisdomworks of those who have aged well, we will reflect on
our own faith journey as we move through our elder years. The
reflection day will offer an opportunity for personal prayer and
reflection, communal sharing and input.
We will celebrate Mass and lunch will be provided. A free-will offering will be taken.

DAY OF PRAYER and SPIRITUAL ENLIGHTENMENT
October 15, 2008
8:30am to 3:00pm
"God's Invitation to Pilgrimage"
Facilitated
by Fr Jerry Funke, pastor of St Paul's Catholic Church in Nampa and
Marjorie DiLorenzo, Co-director of Nazareth Retreat Center
It
has been said that all our life is a pilgrimage. Whether we are
standing on the holy ground of our interior being or physically
standing on the holy ground of a sacred site in some far distant land,
we are accepting a call from God to journey with Him.
Come and discover several different ways to make a pilgrimage. Fr
Jerry Funke and Marjorie DiLorenzo will present through personal story
and pictures the many different forms of pilgrimage. Whether you
are thinking about a directed group or independent pilgrimage, a cruise
or walking pilgrimage, a pilgrimage to the Holy Land, European Shrines, Medjugorje or
Our Lady of Lourdes for healing, they will discuss methods of gathering
the information you will need to 'begin your journey'.
We will celebrate Mass and lunch will be provided. A free-will offering will be taken.
Please call for reservations at 375-2932, or e-mail nazareth@rcdb.org

EVENING OF PRAYER and SPIRITUAL ENLIGHTENMENT
May 4, 5, and 6, 2008
7:00pm
"PRAYING WITH ST PAUL"
Presented by Sister M. Beverly Greger, H.S.M. from Marymount Hermitage in Mesa, Idaho.
To
celebrate the bi-millennial birth of St Paul, the Holy Father has
declared June 29, 2008-2009 the Year of St Paul. To participate
in this grace for the Church, Nazareth is offering three evening
classes and times of prayer. The general theme for these classes
will be "Praying with St Paul" and each evening will have a different
subject matter. Classes can be attended individually, but our hope is
that you can attend all three, which are an organic whole and will
build on each other. We will use the letters of St Paul to
understand his teaching on prayer and his personal prayers to guide our
own. Each evening will combine a teaching and time for individual
prayer in chapel or on the grounds of Nazareth. Please bring a
notebook, pen and Bible for participation in this dynamic presentation.
Adults and older teens can profit by this experience.
A free-will offering, which will go towards the support of the Hermit Sisters of Mary, will be suggested.
