Rhythms of Grace

Picture
St. Gregory the Great Episcopal Church hosts Rhythms of Grace, a family worship service where all forms of physical and vocal responses are embraced, every second Sunday of the month.   Rhythms of Grace is an adaptive church service for those for whom conventional worship may be difficult, including those on the Autism Spectrum. This service has scripture and storytelling that includes spoken and visual cues, therapeutic play for the response, and a simplified prayer for Holy Communion.  Gathering and dismissal rituals help with transitioning.  The Reverend Gordon Bienvenue, a retired Methodist minister, officiates at this inter-denominational service for the whole family.  

St. Gregory's hosts Rhythms of Grace on the second Sunday of each month in the Sanctuary.  All are welcome at every service at St. Gregory’s.  Please invite your friends!  Any questions?  Contact Catherine Drewry, director of Children’s Ministries at 706-201-7241 or cbdrewry@gmail.com. The Rev. Gordon Bienvenue may be reached at 706-850-0090 or gordon11901@gmail.com.
