In collaboration with Grace Episcopal Church, the Ark hosts a weekly contemplative service at 6 pm on Sundays in the chapel of Grace Church, located on the Amherst town common.  In the spirit of providing a centering moment before the start of each week, we invite students, faculty, and all who feel so inclined, to renew their sense of God's presence in these all too busy lives we live.  Intermittent silence, a reflection on a biblical text, and a simple Eucharist, are interspersed with Taize chants in an alternative worship experience designed to free participants from encumbering liturgical
conventions, to delve more deeply into their own unique relationships with God. We hope you will join us.
