When? The first and third Friday of every month, beginning September 5.

Where? The nave of St. Joe’s. (“Nave” is the technical church term for the main part of a chruch building, where the congregation sits. It’s from the Latin for ship - as the church is a ship that holds us aloft and bears us home!) we’ll begin at noon; please arrive at 5 or 10 minutes till, so that you can be seated and ready to enter into quiet at noon. And don’t worry if you’ve never kept silence before. Curiosity, even anxiety, are properly part of the experience. Questions? Email Lauren Norton.
