Becoming Who You Are: A 6-Week Journey with Thomas Merton & Spiritual Gifts

Sundays at 9:30 in the Chapel with Jenny Gee – February 22 – March 29, 2026

This Lent, we invite you into a quieter, deeper exploration of spiritual gifts — not as labels to claim or roles to fill, but as the natural fruit of becoming more fully who God created you to be. Guided by the writings of Thomas Merton, this six-week series will weave together contemplative prayer, silence, reflection, and gentle discernment as we listen for how God’s life is already moving within us.

Rather than asking, “What should I be doing?” we’ll ask more honest questions: Who am I becoming? Where do I feel most alive, compassionate, and true? Through Merton’s wisdom and ancient spiritual practices, we’ll discover that our gifts are not something we earn or manufacture — they emerge as we live more truthfully before God and one another. This class is open to anyone longing for depth, clarity, and a faith that grows from the inside out.
