Welcome to 7 UPS The Word of God - For the People of God 7 UP's Mission is to share the Word of God with God's People by using our website and weekly e-mail to have each share the Ecclesiastes of assembles of people gathering with The Three, God the Father , God the Son and God the Holy Spirit which is always a meeting of Four while reading His Holy Word from your personal e-mail.... To accomplish this we share the upcoming Sunday Liturgical Lesson
in the form of a weekly email. This weekly email will have some
questions at the beginning to think on as the lesson is read. For some
reading in the privacy of their home or work location, then sharing with
a 7 UP group, and then hearing from the pulpit provides additional
meaning of God's Word in their life. The lesson is broken down into 4 parts: - First Reading (usually the Old Testament except during Pentecost), - Responsive Psalms, - Second Reading (New Testament non-Gospel) - Gospel. The readings are followed with Reflective Thoughts from a
fellow 7 Upper, Fr. Jack Vessels, who is a Jesuit Priest first from
Atlanta, then Louisiana, and currently in Texas. Jack provides a
reflection on a theme found in the current weeks lesson. His thoughts
are also short to the point with great-rich meaning-don't miss. There are links to side of the liturgical lesson to provide
commentary, research, thoughts, and links to inspirational sites and
others with whom we wish to associate. At 7 UP meetings, held weekly, the lesson is read out loud and
then thoughts are shared among the group as to possible meanings in our
life and in our relations with others. Each 7 UP meeting is conducted with variations to meet the needs of the group. For example: At Wednesday’s St. Ignatius meeting, the lesson
is read out loud with one person reading the first reading another
person reading the Psalms, another reading the second reading and then
after the Gospel is read there is a moment of Meditative Silence
(approx. 10 minutes) in which the individual reflects on the readings
and listens to the Holy Spirit. The meeting at the Tennis Facility in Dunwoody starts off with
coffee, pastries and fellowship followed by prayer concerns, individual
and group announcements, followed by the rotation of the readings among
Table Group members which is then followed by open discussion of the
readings. This is followed by a closing prayer before the group break to
tables of smaller groups for continued bible studies and discussions. During good weather, frequently following the 7 UPs thursday
meeting, where the Word of God via the liturgical lesson has been
discussed, there is the opportunity to continue the fellowship on a 9
Hole, Par 3 course. If you arre interested in starting a weekly "We Never Not
Meet" 7 UPs Group give us a call or contact us via email
at our7ups@7upsinc.org. If you would like to share the lesson with others, please send us an email providing First Name, Last Name and Email address.
