Guided
Visio Divina
Christianity has a beautiful tradition of understanding the necessity of beautiful things especially in spaces of prayer. But did you ever learn how to pray with these awe-inspiring pieces of art?
A guided Visio Divina will lead your group through the process of just that, how to pray with art. It’s like Lectio Divina with the added step of the visual!
A guided Visio Divina session is perfect for your next Faith Formation gathering, Parish Mission, Women’s group gathering, or even to bring into a Religious Education classroom.
What to Expect with a Guided Visio Divina Session
When you book a guided Visio Divina, you will be working with our team to determine the best needs for your group. We will discuss a theme for the Visio Divina, i.e. Pentecost, the Eucharist, etc., a piece of art to pray with, and scripture to pair with the art.
-
A guided Visio Divina session includes an introduction to Visio Divina, time to pray with the chosen piece visually and with paired scripture, time for personal reflection and group reflection.
-
Each session is about an hour to an hour and a half long and can be flexible. As you are going through the planning process with our team, you can discuss your time limit and what particulars, if any, you would like to include to make the session truly fit your needs.
-
We have experience teaching the concept of Visio Divina to all age groups and mixed age groups making this the perfect addition to any parish mission, confirmation retreat, or school retreat.
-
Yes! Visio Divina pairs wonderfully with a speaking session on the necessity of beauty and can fit in very well with any retreat.
