SUMMARY:Virtual Gathering
DESCRIPTION:Once a month we join together as a community to pray the divine office\, share in the divine meal of communion\, and sharing a conversation (see the topic below). This time is strongly encouraged for all who join us as Monastics and Practitioners. It is also open to anyone who wishes to join us. \n\n\n\nPlease come with bread and wine (or appropriate substitutes) so that you may particpate in communion with us. \n\n\n\nThis Months Conversation\n\n\n\nThis second Sunday of Advent we want to rest into Spiritual Longing & Anticipation. The ecclesial calendar begins with this season of Advent. It is a time for us to cultivate the longing and anticipation of our hope. Together we will talk about how so much of our modern world finds its self at odds with longing and anticipation with its emphasis rather on fulfillment\, realization\, and consumption. We’ll share ideas of ways that we can cultivate in us this gift of waiting and all the emotions and experiences that come with it.

In this conversation we want to reflect and share with one another how we’re doing? How has being a part of this enriched your life? How are we doing implementing our commitment and practices? Learn how Urban Monasticism can better support\, serve\, and equip you in living monastic lives. There is no need for you to personally share if you do not wish to\, but having a candid conversation will help us as we continue on this journey together.

This balance comes in large part from the rhythms we build into our lives. This month we will be talking about “Resting in Rhythms to Lead a Simple Life.” We are excited to share and learn from each other in this time of conversation.

It is also open to anyone who wishes to join us. \n\n\n\nPlease come with bread and wine (or appropriate substitutes) so that you may particpate in communion with us. \n\n\n\nThis Months Conversation\n\n\n\nTogether we will be talking about what might look like to Engage with society to help build a better future for your city. This work should not be done out of compulsion but from a posture of grace\, hope\, and love. We look forward to talking about this together. \n\n\n\nEngage with society to help build a better future for your city.To love our neighbors leads us to love our city. While not a primary focus\, we should support and help build a better future for our cities. Love without action is not following the love of Jesus who followed his love for creation to death for us all. As we work for the good of many we must resist the temptation to do so from a place of power. Yet Jesus being in his nature God chose to engage without using his position of power. Let us work in humility with hope alongside others.

On our commitment you’ll see that we talk about taking an annual retreat with God. This is a part of our annual rhythm that we must be intentional about\, must plan for\, and must prioritize. So lets talk about what it might look like\, what it does for us\, and how we can ensure this retreat doesn’t slip through the cracks.  \n\n\n\nSeek retreat with God once a year.\nDuring his years of ministry Jesus would take time away from his work\, and find rest. Sometimes this rest was alone\, and other times it was in community. We should seek to get away at least once a year. Ideally this time should be in setting full of nature to help us reconnect with the earth in ways difficult in the city. While on retreat keep up with your prayer and fasting. During this retreat you should be disconnected from your lesser vocation.

On our commitment you’ll notice two which rhythms. We have previously talked about daily\, weekly\, monthly\, and annual rhythms. This conversation builds upon this as we look into the intersections and existing rhythms in our urban contexts. \n\n\n\nLive life with an urban rhythm.\n\nAt our core Urban Monasticism is a pattern and way of life we live together. Our ways of life adapt to the density and style of living in our context. We seek to live a way of life in the midst of the chaos of the city. The boundaries of the city serve as the walls of our monastery. These rhythms include living in a city dense with people\, walking and public transit as primary ways of movement\, and living in dense housing (both our dwelling\, and around us). Not living in an urban context would change the context of your life enough to be beyond some core aspects of what we are. You can participate\, but cannot be an urban monastic.

This is a part of our Commitment and hopefully this conversatio will help us to live out these values. We will likely touch on a few parts of our shared commitment that talk about vocation. The work we do as vocation takes up a large part of our time\, energy\, and focus. Let us together talk about how we can allow our vocation to be both spiritual work\, and a part of our worship to God. \n\n\n\nFrom the Commitment: \n\n\n\nVocation is spiritual work and to provide for your needs.\n\nWe are each called to work jobs where we are paid. You can work for someone else\, or for yourself. There are no restrictions on vocations\, but you should not work in a job where you are expected to harm others (even for the sake of protection). In the same way Jesus used his learned skills to make a living before his ministry started\, we should learn skills to make a living for ourselves\, our families\, and to allow us to be generous to others. This is spiritual work. It is a lesser work than our work of prayer and fasting\, but not to be disregarded\, or lack our attention.
