ESCM January Fellowship 2026 - Holy Listening with Manni Lee (Hybrid)
Let’s begin and continue 2026 by listening together to the Holy Spirit. We warmly invite you to our January Fellowship gathering featuring a special guest from NYC.
Date: Wednesday, January 7th, 2026
Time: 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM EST (Informal fellowship starts at 9:30 AM)
Guest Spiritual Director: Manni Lee (from NYC)
Topic: Holy Listening as a Path into the New Year
Format: Hybrid Event (In-Person and Zoom)
Scarborough Chinese Baptist Church (SCBC)
3223 Kennedy Road, Toronto, Ontario
We welcome ministerial friends from the Toronto GTA and invite the PaLM Fellowship (Pastoral and Laity Ministries) from the NYC/NJ area to join us via Zoom.
Spiritual formation is the lifelong process of allowing God to shape our lives from the inside out. This workshop invites us to slow down, pay attention, and align our lives with God’s loving presence.
Contemplative prayer is an accessible and transformative way to grow in this awareness. It helps us pause in the midst of ministry demands, listen beneath the noise, and make room for God to speak, comfort, and guide. Instead of striving to know more or produce more, contemplative prayer invites us to let God see us, hold us, and restore us.
In this session, we will move beyond discussion and actively practice. We will enter a guided contemplative prayer experience designed to help us begin the new year rooted in listening, hope, and renewed connection with God.
Come rest, reflect, and receive. May this gentle pause open new pathways of presence, clarity, and grace for the year ahead as you serve faithfully with God and your church.
