Lectio Divina and Art Introduction Workshop

Contemplative Prayer and Creative Practice with Scripture

This introductory workshop invites you to enter Scripture as a space for encounter with God. Through the four movements of Lectio Divina:

  • Reading

  • Meditation

  • Prayer

  • Contemplation

You’ll listen, reflect, and respond to God’s Word.

Each session then guides you to express these reflections through art-making, allowing your spiritual insights and questions to take tangible, creative form. By combining contemplative prayer with hands-on creativity, the workshop offers a practice that is both deeply reflective and actively embodied.
