Noticeboard – The Julian Meetings

We have launched an index to our magazine library 2001-2024. The magazines have been available to read for a while. Recently we added 2001-2010. But it was difficult to identify or find an author, contributor, topic or article. Not everyone wants to read a random whole magazine .

Thanks to the valiant efforts of one of our members we now have an complete index to the entire content of our archive, plus selections highlighting various categories.

See our new Library page. Here you will find links to the various selections plus the entire index comprising over 1,500 entries. It is easy to find, and access the original texts and articles online.

The selections are:

Contemplative Prayer, Julian of Norwich, The Spiritual Journey, Modern Contemplatives, JM Online and Outside the UK, Various Ways of Praying, Arts and Crafts, The Human Condition, Poems, Devotional Resources, Quotations

We are in the process of creating links to take you directly to the text or to the original magazine in our archive. This is a manual process so is taking time. But all the information is there for you to easily find and read any entry. You can find the original magazine in our magazine archive.

Blessings to all our readers as we celebrate the resurrection of our Lord. Orthodox, Catholic and Protestant churches all celebrate Easter this weekend as the calendars align. Except possibly the Ethiopian Orthodox Church as that is too complicated for me to work out.

An Easter message from the JM National Council:

The Julian Meetings works to support the one-hundred-and-forty local meetings across the UK in which anyone and everyone can share in the experience of silent prayer in the company of others.

JM also seeks to promote and publicise this ancient and essential strand of the Christian tradition through our website, social media, and simple and accessible publications.

The organisation is run by a small group of volunteers, with no paid staff. We keep expenses to a minimum. There are, however, costs in equipment, postage and other essentials.

JM is seeking to increase its individual membership. Members are able to participate in the discussions on the future work and development of JM and get advance notice of books recently published and available to review. Usually the only regular communication that members receive is a monthly update about what has been added to the website. A discretionary donation is requested.

If you are able either to become a member, or would prefer just to make a donation, we would be very grateful. Your support will give us confidence, as a small core group of volunteers, that The Julian Meetings can continue its work into the future. We believe that silent contemplation with God is a foundation of our Christian belief. Sadly, the world has never needed this more.
