Ruach
Quieting the busyness of our minds by the gentle, focussed movement of our bodies - based on Chi Gung "moving meditation", then spending time with an insight from the medieval mystics. We aim to experience the divine Spirit through meditation and breathing, to allow space and time for listening to the Creator of the universe.
...Now happening every Thursday Lunchtime at 1.00pm in St Luke's "The Bombed Out Church", top of Bold St.
Living the Questions
- Exploring Progressive Faith
People know that at its core, Christianity has something good to offer humanity. At the same time, many have a sense that they are alone in being a "thinking" Christian and that "salvaging" Christianity is a hopeless task. What is needed is a safe environment where people have permission to ask the questions they've always wanted to ask but have been afraid to voice for fear of being thought a heretic.
St Bride's regularly runs the "Living the Questions" course - an exploration of Progressive Christianity. Click here to see an introductory video.
Next start date for LTQ is Thursday 7th June 2012
Social and Community Action at St Bride's
St Bride's is home to four community projects.
The Homeless Meal Project provides hot meals for the homeless and vulnerable. Catalyst Arts Project engages with young people in the community through music. To find out more about these projects, and opportunities for volunteering and giving to them, click the links on the sidebar above. St Brides & Mildmay Allotment Project brings together formerly homeless residents of Chapter1 Mildmay House with volunteers from the University to grow organic veg in the garden at St Bride's. The Community Art Group offers a space for friendship, self expression and the exploration of spirituality through art.
The IChoir at St Bride's
We're a small friendly choir and we always welcome new singers and musicians. We perform 8 or 9 times a year at events around the city. We really enjoy our singing and we work hard to get out music sounding as good as it can be - but we're also here to enjoy ourselves, an to have fun, so the atmosphere is nice and relaxed. In fact we think singing is a great way to let your hair down and build confidence. Our our repertoire is a varied mix from the Beatles, Mamas and Papas & Simon & Garfunkel to the Eagles.......with a sprinkling of gospel......and we love singing The Coventry Carol at any time of year!
We are directed by our professional conductor,Chris,who rehearses the choir every Tuesday from 5.30 p.m. to 7.30 p.m. at St Bride's Church, Catherine Street, Liverpool. You're welcome to come and get an idea of what we do - we have a tea break half way through our rehearsal and a well eared pint after - so there's plenty of time to have a chat!
