DRUM CIRCLE

Thursday, January 25th - 6 PM

Wayfarers love spending time together laughing, playing, working together to create something special -- getting connected with each other and the energy and power of life. And through the magic of drumming, we get to do all those things at once! To make it an even more powerful experience, this month's drum circle is held on the FULL MOON.


Bring your own drum or borrow one of our drums or percussion instruments. Either way, be sure to join us at 6 PM in the chapel this Thursday, January 25th for another full moon drumming circle adventure. EVERYONE is welcome!

WHOLEHEARTEDNESS STUDY GROUP

FULL MOON DRUM CIRCLE

Thursday, January 25th at 6 PM

Playing drums and other percussion instruments in a circle is a great way to create community as you work together to create a shared rhythm. And it is even more powerful when it occurs on a full moon. So, be sure to join us at 6 PM in the chapel Thursday, January 25th for another full moon drumming circle. This isn't a performance, mind you - this is sheer FUN and EVERYONE is welcome!
