Lectio Divina
"Your word is a lamp to my feet, a light to my path"
Psalm 119
Psalm
Lectio Divina is a way of getting to know, in a personal and intimate way, the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. It is a way of reading centred on God and it is slow and meditative. Lectio is all about listening: to the Lord and to each other.
We can pray Lectio by ourselves or with others. In the Lay Community, we have a few sessions that happen weekly which you are very welcome to join.
Tuesdays 8pm (as part of St Benedict at Home)
Wednesdays 11am for Adults
Wednesdays 7:30pm for Under 25s
Wednesdays 8:30pm 25-35s
"We speak to him when we pray; we listen to him when we read his Word.
St. Ambrose, IV c.
From the fourth hour until the time of Sext, they will devote themselves to lectio divina. (ch 48)
