Meditative Zentangle Practice

Due to low attendance numbers, there is no Meditative Zentangle Practice scheduled for the spring of 2025.  If you are interested in this practice, please complete this interest form to join the Interest List.  If we receive enough responses, a date & time will be arranged by consulting those on the Interest List.

This newly-created meditative practice integrates Zentangle-inspired art, centering prayer, and visio divina. It includes silence, reflection, and group sharing. During the time of silence, instead of returning to a word or phrase as is usual for centering prayer, participants will return to a Zentangle pattern provided by Sylvie. 

This newly-created practice:
  • helps you rest, reflect, and feel renewed;
  • expands awareness;
  • increases a sense of connection with the Divine;
  • creates community;
  • ​can be learned and practiced at home.

For anyone who has attended one of Sylvie’s Zentangle art classes.  Limited to 9 participants.


Cost: Suggested donation is $15-30. If this amount would keep you from attending, please donate what you are able to pay.  
Facilitator: Sylvie Gudin


We suggest bringing your own sketchbook or paper,  pens, pencils, and any material you like and are familiar with  to create a collection of your Zentangle meditative practices.  Some art supplies will be available for those who do not have their own.
If the suggested donation amount is a barrier to your participation, please give the amount you can afford. ​

Picture
Sylvie Gudin is an artist, spiritual director, and graduate of Anabaptist Mennonite Biblical Seminary who began experimenting with Zentangle Art about three years ago. She finds it to be a meditative practice that helps quiet her mind, focus thoughts, and bring her to the present moment . An accomplished watercolor painter, she also enjoys laughing, reading in bed, walking in the countryside and anything that involves creativity. She is married to Brent Koehn and lives in Elkhart, IN.
