What we’re about
We strive to complete our understanding of the words of Jesus by studying the Lord’s Prayer in Aramaic, his native language.
We will study the Lord’s Prayer phrase by phrase. Participants begin by learning to recite and understand the Aramaic words. Then, participants will learn to SING these Aramaic words in several lovely melodies. We also use gentle repetitive movements to DANCE the Prayer in a deeply meditative celebration. Our aim is to embody the sayings, to pray with our entire being.
There is some historical evidence that suggests that Jesus sang and danced with his disciples. By singing his words in Aramaic and breathing together and moving as one, we strive to deepen our connection with each other and with Christ’s teachings.
Everyone is invited. No language skills or singing or dancing talents are needed to engage in this practice. Everything is carefully and patiently taught. Also, no particular religious orientation or belief is required. Anyone who wants to learn is welcome to come.
