Be Still

We invite you to embark on a transformative journey with us as we delve into the depths of stillness, seeking rest in the comforting presence of our loving God. In the midst of the chaos and busyness of our world, it is all too easy to lose sight of the peace that awaits us when we quiet our hearts and minds.

Join us for our upcoming sermon series, “Be Still: Finding Rest in God’s Presence,” where we will explore the profound wisdom of Psalm 46:10: “Be still, and know that I am God.” Over the course of four weeks, we will uncover the power of slowing down, practicing silence, solitude, and Sabbath as pathways to experiencing the unhurried love of our Creator.

Throughout this series, we will delve into the following themes:

Sunday, June 4, 2023: “Be Still” – Discover how the practice of stillness helps us cultivate a deeper awareness of God’s presence in our lives. Learn practical ways to embrace stillness amidst the noise and distractions that surround us.
Sunday, June 11, 2023: “Know God” – Explore the transformative power of silence as a means to deepen our relationship with God. Through intentional moments of quiet reflection, we can experience His love and presence more fully.
Sunday, June 18, 2023 “Know Yourself” – Journey into the restorative practice of Sabbath and discover its significance in gaining a deeper understanding of ourselves and our connection to God and others. Experience the rejuvenation that comes from setting aside time to rest and honor the rhythms of creation.
Sunday, June 25, 2023: “Unhurried Love” – Explore the beauty of slowing down and cultivating an unhurried love for ourselves, others, and God. Discover how embracing a slower pace can bring about profound changes in our relationships and our ability to live with grace and compassion.

We invite you to bring your hearts ready to receive, minds open to new insights, and a willingness to embark on this sacred journey of stillness together. Let us pause, breathe, and immerse ourselves in the transformative power of being still in God’s presence.

Join us at Sandy Hook UMC every Sunday in June at 8:45 am & 11 am, as we gather to worship, learn, and embrace the gift of stillness. Together, let us find rest, renewal, and a deeper connection with the One who calls us to be still.

We look forward to walking this journey with you!
