Music & Meditation is back for its 2nd year with some changes to this exciting program. The gatherings are held on the first Sunday of every month, and each month will have a theme (some themes will span multiple months). Each month, participants will gather and listen to music associated with that theme. Sometimes it will be a full album, and sometimes it will be a more curated list of tracks on the theme. Themes will have a brief essay discussing the theme and the music that is featured. Music & Meditation will kick off on September 3rd with a session celebrating the 50th anniversary of hip-hop including a session all about the art of sampling. The evening begins at 7 PM – you are encouraged to bring your own comfy chair, blanket, or bean bag. All are welcome! Questions may be directed to Joel Bruns via the church office. admin@hfec.org
