Time Out – A Quiet Space for Adults @ Northminster Presbyterian Church
Apr 14 @ 7:30 pm – 8:00 pm

Time Out – A Quiet Space for Adults – On Sunday nights at 7:30, Northminster Presbyterian Church is hosting a time of peaceful silence. This is not a religious service: this is a space for anyone and everyone seeking a little more quiet time in their lives.

Pastor Chris will open the Northminster Sanctuary at 7 p.m. as quiet, meditative music plays.
Quiet activities, such as reading, writing, or coloring, are welcomed and encouraged. Tools for meditative practices will also be available.

We ask that you leave your phone at home or in the car; but a phone/technology check-in will be available at the entrance of the sanctuary.

All are invited, regardless of personal background or religious tradition.

If you have any questions, please contact Chris Hallam at pastor@troynorthminster.com
