Highlights of Past Events at St. Paul's
The community of St. Paul's offers many opportunities to learn and grow. Here are highlights of previous events from the current program year:
Sound Bath on the Summer Solstice: A Communal Experience
Thursday, June 20 | 7-9pm (doors open at 6:30pm) | Foote Hall
Ancient civilizations held sacred rituals on the summer solstice to honor the season’s life-giving power. Just as the sun reaches its zenith and begins its descent, we, too, can practice releasing old patterns, limiting beliefs, and anything that holds us back from our highest potential. St. Paul’s offers a special way to mark the solstice in community this year!
Beginning with simple meditative techniques that can help your body better receive the benefits of both stillness and sound in this immersive experience, the Logos Method Sound Journey will invite participants to relax into a symphony of soothing sounds designed to reduce pain and stress while boosting calm, mental clarity, and spiritual connection. This multi-sensory community night is perfect for cultivating fresh perspective with deeper resilience, peace, and well-being!
Come early to select your spot! Bring your own yoga mat, blankets, and pillows to support your physical comfort during the sound bath! Lying on the floor is recommended, but you are welcome to participate in whatever way helps your body feel at ease, including seated in a chair.
