Rhythms Newsletter June 2019 Rest is not idleness, And to lie sometimes on the grass Under trees on a summer’s day, Listening to the murmur of the water, Or watching the clouds float across the sky, Is by no means a waste of time. John Lubbock, The Use of Life Sabbatical Time Pathways will be taking its annual sabbatical in stages this year. Tuesday, Thursday and Friday’s Lectio prayer will continue through June 7. Creation Prayer will continue through June 28. Pathways will take a sabbatical for the month of July. The land is always open for walking labyrinths and trails or sitting in a colorful chair, gazing upon the wildflower meadow. All prayers will resume the week of August 5.
