This on-going Adult Enrichment group meets every week on Tuesday evenings for one hour of meditation including a reading.  Come, sit, listen, and meditate with us.

This is a monthly worship service our church provides for members and friends residing at the Havenwood-Heritage Heights retirement community and others interested in attending.  The service is held in the Chapel on the Havenwood campus.   

Are there stories and photos that have guided you in your faith?  To honor and celebrate your path and life's mission statement, you can create a Faithbook at any or all of our scrapbooking events.  Do you have photos that need to be organized?  We share ideas, inspiration, a table filled with photo/paper-cropping tools, idea books, and stories.  The most treasured gifts come from our hands and our hearts.  You may bring your own supplies or use ours to get started on your project.

Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) is a powerful program of instruction for dealing directly with life experiences in an open, honest and affirming way. Originally developed at the U-Mass Medical School's Center for Mindfulness by Jon Kabat-Zinn, MBSR training provides a proven means for awakening to the full experience of your life, for helping people to reduce discomfort associated with physical and emotional pain, and to improve participants' ability to cope comfortably with stressors and pain that cannot be eliminated. A commitment to 45-60 minutes per day of daily meditation/gentle movement is required in order to make the program successful for participants. Details: Sunday evenings, 6 - 8:30 pm, January 17 through March 14, All-day session Saturday, March 6, 9 am to 4 pm, $25 materials fee.

Meets Thursdays, weekly

This class practices a broad range of postures to tone, cleanse, and relax, the muscular and nervous systems, while opening all the joints of the spine, hips, shoulders, and limbs.  Mindfulness during centering, yogic breathing, postures, and the ending deep relaxation invite the subtle nonphysical benefits of yoga.   It is appropriate for a range of students.  The approach is sufficiently safe, gentle, and even-paced for new students, while providing experienced students with plenty of opportunity for challenge and development.
