The Artemis Mounykhia Proto-demos and Eranos cordially
invites you to attend out monthy sessions of "Lectio Homerica."
"Lectio Homerica" is based on the Christian practice of "spiritual reading
of the Bible" called "Lectio Divina" We will use this method
to read and meditate on the Homeric Hymns and other classical religious texts to better commune with our Gods.
For more information, please read: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lectio_divina
Meetups for this event will occur on the fourth Tuesday of each month.
Due to the meditative nature of the practice, we will be meeting at a private residence. Please email Laura at laura@sehellenes.org
