CENTERING PRAYER
INTRODUCTORY WORKSHOP

Sunday, January 8
9:30 AM – 12:30 PM
     

What is Centering Prayer? Is God calling me to this form of prayer? Do I have a desire for union with God that seems unfulfilled by other types of prayer? How do I “do” Centering Prayer? Will Centering Prayer really change me? Is the fact that I can’t quiet my mind a problem? Come and see. It is well worth the time. Donation: $25

 

CLASSICS ON CONTEMPLATIVE PRAYER

6 Tuesdays
6:30 – 8:30 PM
     
        
January 10 March 6 May 1
February 7 April 3 June 5

We will be instructed in Contemplative Prayer by the best teachers. The evening includes Lectio Divina and two 20-minute sessions of contemplative prayer. We will also view a 20-minute segment of Fr. Thomas Keating’s DVD series, Heartfulness: Transformation in Christ and engage in good spiritual reading on contemplative prayer between sessions. Donation: $75, includes book

  

THE THREE STAGES OF PRAYER

Thursday, January 12
9:30 AM – 1:00 PM
  

Do you sometimes have the awareness that your prayer could be fuller or deeper or “more” somehow but you can’t quite “get there”? We will take the journey in this morning retreat from “saying” prayers, to “praying affectively” from the heart to “contemplative union” – all in a morning! Why not? It is our heart’s desire! Donation: $30, includes lunch and book

 

7-DAY CENTERING PRAYER RETREAT

Begins 7:00 PM – Ends 10:00 AM  
   
August 8 – 15 (Wednesday to Wednesday)
     

A Centering Prayer retreat invites you to go more deeply into the silence and stillness, which facilitates growth in Contemplative Prayer and real attentiveness to God’s Word. The schedule provides many optional communal Centering Prayer periods, which are usually preceded by 20 minutes of Lectio Divina. Donation: $420; $60 non-refundable deposit with registration
