Sacred Geometry seeks to connect the divine imprint on all creation with the language of mathematics and vice versa.
From ancient times, people were aware of the “blueprint of creation,” which inspired them to seek to replicate these incredible patterns
in ecclesiastical design, art, architecture, literature, and music. We will explore how the Fibonacci Sequence makes it way literally and symbolically into the sacred, we will learn from a mathematics teacher how we can understand the provenance of sacred geometry and other fascinating details of the world around us.
Please join us As Cenacle Auxiliary, and math teacher, Ann Frearson explores how geometric shapes have shaped our spaces, worship, and sacred arts not only over the centuries but even today.
All are welcome to this online program.
Date: Wednesday August 14, 2024
Time: 10:00 – 11:00 AM Central
Format: Online via Zoom; please have your camera on.
About the Facilitator:
Ann Frearson, M.Ed. has taught high school mathematics and religion for 46 years and has also served as a campus minister and a learning strategist for students with learning differences. She earned her BS from Barry University, her M.Ed from FAU and a graduate certificate in Pastoral Studies from Loyola University. She feels very privileged to have helped prepare students for their roles in the world as physicians, scientists, lawyers, priests and politicians, but most importantly, people of faith. She is currently retired, but is active in her parish of St Ignatius Loyola. She believes God is found in all things and she developed a passion for studying Sacred Geometry, an ancient subject which details the divine design in all creation. She believes studying Sacred Geometry can generate a greater depth of reverence for creation and deeper belief in God’s omnipresence. She is keenly interested in the deep relationships between theology and science. Ann is also an Auxiliary of the Cenacle, a lay group of women associated with the Religious of the Cenacle, whose charism is awakening and deepening faith for all people through retreats, programs and spiritual direction.
