This past sunday we explored Lectio Divina at our week Zoom meeting.

Lectio Divina is an ancient way of praying with the bible. It has five movements:
1. Lectio: reading and listening to the word of God
2. Meditatio: meditating on the scripture you read
3. Oratio: responding to god with conscious prayer
4. Comtemplatio: comtemplation and resting in God's unconditional love.
5. Actio: ask yourself: "what does the word of God invite me to do?"

Check out the video below to learn more and for a walk thru on how to pray using lectio divina.
