At Burke Presbyterian Church, we offer a number of opportunities and spaces for contemplative worship.
Meditation Room
A meditation room is available in the church building, just down the corridor from the church office.
The meditation room offers a quiet place for prayer. A prayer net holds symbols of those prayers. Kneelers and cushions are provided.
Labyrinth Prayer Walk
The Burke Presbyterian Church labyrinth ministry provides a regular opportunity for contemplative worship. You are invited to walk the outdoor labyrinth, located in the Memorial Garden at the end nearest the parking lot entrance.
An indoor labyrinth is open the first Monday each month from 9 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. It is located in the Meeting House.
Quiet Day
It is far too easy to get caught up in the hustle-bustle of the season – barely taking time to stop and reflect on the real meaning of the season. A gift to oneself would be a bit of time spent at BPC on a Quiet Day.
Burke Presbyterian Church has periodic Quiet Days each year. On these days there is the opportunity to sit, read, reflect, journal, and walk the labyrinth. At our last such event, a simple meal of soup, bread, fruit and home-made cookies was available throughout the day.
In the still and quiet comes the gift of hearing the message of God’s word.
