Reflections for Contemplation-Color Music Ministry
Contemplative Worship Evenings Live, with Color Music Ministry
In 2016, Color held a number of prayer sessions for our fellow member Denis when he fell ill. It was natural that these sessions would incorporate music as this was our natural form of expression. This was the start of what eventually became Contemplative Worship (CW) evenings, a monthly event at the parish of Our Lady of the Rosary RC Church. With the support of our clergy and the decoration ministry, CW provided a space for prayer, music and quiet reflection in the presence of the Blessed Sacrament.
In 2021 CW Evenings moved into a virtual space, as the COVID pandemic brought restrictions for in-person gatherings and performing live music.

Have Faith- A dialogue
An Observer sees a person and notes:
“You’re at the end of the rope.
Feel you have nowhere to go.
You’ve done everything to make
Things right but just can’t see a way”
A Faith Group says
“Have faith! Put your trust in Almighty God
Ask in prayer, believe it is yours”
A Prayer Group prays
“Our Father, who art in heaven,
hallowed be your name;
Your kingdom come;
Your will be done;
on earth as it is in heaven.”
The Faith Group says:
“If you’re scruntin’, If you’re grievin’
If you’re lonely, Need a healin’
Put your trust in Almighty God
Pour your heart out, give it over in prayer, believe it is yours”
The Prayer Group says:
“Give us today our daily bread
Give us today our daily bread
And forgive us our sins,
as we forgive those who do wrong against us.”
The Person says:
“Forgiving is hard, some of these things real bad
Lord help me to forgive, bring peace and love and joy
Into my heart and mind”
I want to trust more, I want to let go
But how can I be sure it will all be ok?”
The Faith Group says:
“Have faith!
Do not be afraid
Do not be discouraged
The Almighty will be with you always
Be strong and take courage,
Believe in the help that is already yours”
The Prayer Group prays:
“Lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil”
The Person says:
“Awesome God! ❤️ “The LORD is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer”
