EDINA, MINNESOTA, USA. We have a lot to learn from our youth in how they engage with their creativity in a bold and fearless way. After the Bonfire service the congregation broke into four groups to explore with their heads, hearts and hands including on the World Canvas Project. They gathered around the table to share in community prayer expressed in both Word and image. It was a contemplative evening of prayer, creativity and community.
“Bonfire is a service designed around the ancient Christian ordo – with a twist. We gather around Jesus’ table, as Christians have done for centuries. But, in a pattern being renewed in Scandinavia and Austria, we spend time in the midst of this worship with various responses: prayer, singing, journaling, creating art, doing justice. The Word becomes flesh IN us as we respond “Here I AM.”
