Mid-Week Eucharist
Mid-Week Eucharist
We are a church community that supports the neighbourhood spiritually and pastorally. Besides the Sunday morning service at 10 am, we also gather in the middle of the week for a simplified Eucharist as we notice some people might be rarely in town on weekends. We worship, pray, read, listen to reflection and receive the Holy Communion together. Whether or not you are a church-goer, you are welcome to join!

Drumming Circle & Uplifting Discussion ๐Ÿช˜โœจ๐ŸŒ
Drumming Circle & Uplifting Discussion ๐Ÿช˜โœจ๐ŸŒ
**NO MUSICAL EXPERIENCE REQUIRED** **About Drum & Soul** Drum & Soul is a participatory community space that combines drumming, singing, reflection and conversation in one shared experience. Through rhythms from different cultures, collective music making and meaningful discussion around a focused theme, we practise qualities that strengthen both the individual and the community. This is more than a drumming circle. It is a space where people can grow in expression, presence, listening, and contribution, while learning how these same qualities can be carried into everyday life and relationships. --- ... **Why come** Come if you want to grow your expressive capacity, feel more at ease participating with others, and be part of a growing space that celebrates the human in us. Everyone is welcome, regardless of age, background or musical experience. If you feel shy in groups, that is completely natural. Many people arrive unsure and leave feeling surprisingly at home. --- ... **How it works** --- We begin with a short breathing and centring exercise, followed by simple rhythm demonstration and call and response drumming. We then move into smaller group discussion around a shared theme. From there we shift into collective jamming and improvisation, and end with a potluck meal and informal connection. --- ... **Typical meeting flow** 1. ๐Ÿซฑ๐Ÿฝโ€๐Ÿซฒ๐Ÿป Arrival & social time โ€“ 15 min 2. ๐Ÿ™‹๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ Welcome, check in and centring โ€“ 15 min 3. ๐Ÿช˜ Call & Respond **Drumming & demo** โ€“ 20 min 4. ๐Ÿ’ฌ Facilitated **Discussion** on the Theme (groups of five-or so) โ€“ 20 min 5. ๐Ÿ•บ๐Ÿฝ Open **Jamming** with multiple instruments โ€“ 30 min 6. ๐Ÿฆ‹ Potluck **dinner** & social time afterwards โ€“ 60 min *This outline is flexible and may shift to suit the group and the space.* --- ... **Logistics & what to bring** We meet in a large and beautiful space. Drums are available on a first come first served basis. We also provide plenty of small percussion instruments so every hand can play. You are welcome to bring your own drum or instrument. We end the evening with a shared **potluck meal**, an extension of the circle where conversation and connection continue. Since the event is free, we warmly ask everyone to bring a small item to share if they are able. Simple finger foods and easy to serve savoury items are especially helpful, such as fruit, veggies and dip, wraps, sandwiches, hummus and pita, samosas, spring rolls, crackers and cheese, or other meal friendly bites. Sweet items are welcome too, but meal friendly contributions are especially appreciated. --- ... **Cost & contributions** --- This is a free event. If you are unable to bring food, you are welcome to make an optional contribution toward refreshments and materials by e-transfer to **hooshmandnyc@gmail.com** --- ... **Helpful notes** --- No prep needed. Doors open at 3:45 p.m. Please arrive by then so we can start at 4:00 p.m. sharp and keep the flow. Location and any last minute updates are posted on Meetup and in our WhatsApp group. We recommend joining the WhatsApp group (ask us for the link at the venue) for quick notices. --- ... **Life Between Gatherings** Drum & Soul does not begin and end with the monthly session. For those who want to continue beyond the gatherings and go deeper, we also have: โ€ข **Advanced sessions** for those who want to go further in drumming technique and explore the discussion themes more deeply in a smaller group โ€ข **Home or cafรฉ meetups** for simple in-person connection, where a few participants can continue the conversation more personally and naturally โ€ข **Ongoing contact** so the spirit of the gathering can carry into everyday life through our own reflection, friendship and mutual encouragement Over time, these smaller spaces help strengthen connection, shared learning, and community life between sessions. Ask us about these features for more detail. --- ... **Why this matters** Our world is like a sick body, and is aching for a lasting remedy. We believe our special mission here is to nurture one another, define our roles in service to our fellow humans, and become living temples of unity. A meaningful growth unfolds through both selfโ€‘discovery and collective effort, and one cannot truly flourish without the other. Come open and prepared to learn, to offer your gifts, and to be strengthened by the power of community. *This ad is also posted in other groups* ๐Ÿ“ท Follow us on [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/artsoultoronto/) ๐ŸŽฅ [A glimpse from one of our sessions](https://youtu.be/ejfeV1PF-0k)
