Presence
Tonight's moot service was on the subject of Presence, as described in our Rhythm of Life. The link to our Rhythm of Life is on the left, but I've also had requests to put elements of tonight's service up here, so here goes:
The Jewish prayer was a traditional one found by Aaron on a unitarian website, and went like this:
O Breathing Life, your Name shines everywhere!
Release a space to plant your Presence here.
Envision your "I Can" now.
Embody your desire in every light and form.
Grow through us this moment's bread and wisdom.
Untie the knots of failure binding us,
as we release the strands we hold of others' faults.
Help us not forget our Source,
Yet free us from not being in the Present.
From you arises every Vision, Power and Song
from gathering to gathering.
Amen -
May our future actions grow from here!
The two meditations were from different sources - one was from beingyourself.info and is here:

The other one was from "How to Pray" by John Pritchard, which is a great resource generally:

The music was all taken from "The Shutov Assembly" by Brian Eno.
