An Autumn Quiet Day will take place on Saturday, October 26 from 9 a.m. – 1 p.m. at Niantic Community Church. A Quiet Time With Himalayan Singing Bowls concert will follow at 1:30, featuring John Irwin.
The Quiet Day is a free mini-retreat with time for silence and sharing, centering prayer, time to create an autumn leaf mandala and a simple, soulful lunch. Presented by Pastor Stephanie Haskins and Community Minister, Patty Chaffee.
John Irwin has been playing singing bowls for about five years and currently has a collection of 25 bowls. Himalayan singing bowls are made of bronze, an alloy of copper and tin, in various sizes, shapes and thicknesses. The tones produced by playing Himalayan singing bowls can be a unique entry into a place of peace, healing, harmony, and serenity.

“To be present to hear the complex, harmonious, interweaving tones of two or more bowls played together can be a truly profound experience,” said Irwin who has been playing the bowls for the past five years, and has a collection of 25 bowls. “If you have never heard several singing bowls being played together, you have never really heard singing bowls.”
All are welcome to both events but registration is required for the Quiet Day by calling the church office at (860)739-6208.
