Praying with Our Bodies and the Bible: Reconnecting Our Whole Selves to God **MORE SPACES ADDED**

£336

Friday 23rd October @ 4:00 pm Sunday 25th October @ 2:00 pm

Join Amy Boucher Pye and Kristen Rubow to explore, through Scripture stories and passages, how God has designed us to be fully integrated beings – soul, spirit, mind and body. We’ll encounter God with our embodied beings as we, for example, see God breathing life into us at creation while we expand our lungs and receive the Holy Spirit through breath prayers. Or how we can attach to God through stories in the Old Testament, and receiving Jesus’ love through the gospels. All are welcome, and we’ll work within the limitations of our individual bodies. Come and worship the Lord in spirit, soul, mind and body!

Amy Boucher Pye and Kristen Rubow have been friends since they were toddlers. Amy is a London-based author, spiritual director, and retreat leader. The author of six books, she also writes devotional thoughts for publications such as Our Daily Bread and New Daylight. Her MA in Christian spirituality comes from Heythrop College, University of London. Find her at amyboucherpye.com.

Kristen is a mind and movement coach based in Colorado. Her previous extensive music background as a professional harpist instilled in her an understanding of how God awakens our senses. She developed M3Kinections, her studio, with a movement curriculum on neuroplasticity 15 years ago and now encourages people to use movement to develop connection within themselves, creating a stronger sense of self and wholeness.
