Prayers at Twilight: Daily Liturgies for the In-Between Times

by Beth A. Booram, Beth A. Booram

Prayers at Twilight is a collection of liturgies that foster the contemplative spirit—a way of seeing all of life as a place to encounter God. The book is 52 pages in length and organized around seven values, one for each day of the week. The book also includes eight original images by David Booram. Prayers at Twilight is an invitation to pray the values of quiet, vocation, beauty, presence, conversation, hospitality, and wholeness into our lives with the hope that each would receive the gift of contemplative vision and breathe these values into our communities as we respond whole-heartedly in partnership with God to bring healing to our world. --- Fall Creek Abbey is an urban retreat house in Indianapolis, thoughtfully designed for those seeking to reconnect their hearts with the heart of God. When someone walks through the doors into the Abbey, it’s not uncommon for them to pause and want to name what they’re the sensation of peace, quiet, welcome, and simple beauty. Many who come are seeking a sanctuary where they will be undisturbed and find rest in a setting that is supportive and nurturing. “Our great joy at Fall Creek Abbey is to live a life that is right-sized for our season; one where small things are cherished, slowness is a virture, and solitude is a welcome relief from a busy, noisy world.”
