Healing & Prayer Rock-Washing Ritual

Sunday, June 22 at 10:15am in Oehler Hall

The St. John's LGBTQ+ 1128 Group will be hosting a Healing and Prayer Rock-Washing Ritual as we center the value of Healing this Pride month. 

At the St. John's booth at the Sacramento Pride Festival, we invited visitors to express their feelings about “church” and “God”. Perhaps it’s been a hurt, a prayer, or a statement of an expression of faith. They wrote on river rocks that we kept on display throughout the festival and brought back with us afterwards. 

All are invited to participate in this rock-washing ritual, where we'll participate in “washing” or “offering up” the expression from the rocks as a way to recognize how God is able to wash away our hurts and will always hear our prayers.
