"The Wilderness" an Emergent Church Experience

The Wilderness is a community within Saint John’s Cathedral Parish in Denver, Colorado. We are contemplative and Episcopal in our heritage, and seek to create a welcoming place for divine worship, inquiry, and service, open to all. Our worship service is a Eucharist (from the ancient Greek word eucharistia, meaning “giving thanks”), thoughtfully designed with original music and visuals, opportunities for silence, a meditative worship space, and participation by all in our Christian spiritual experience. We hope to grow into a continuous community of worship, prayer and of service to others. If you want to see life as a journey not a resting place, faith as inquiry not pat answers, liturgy as prayer not performance, and church as community not a club, please check us out. This successful program has been running for only a short time and already regularly attracts over 100 people. The Wilderness team will be offering this service to us at the Friday night late-night option and then discussing it at the Saturday morning short hike time.  Come for yourself, come to learn, and come to grow yourself and your ministry!

Led by The Rev. Poulson Reed and the Wilderness Team from St. John’s Episcopal Cathedral, Denver, Colorado
