Community

Contemplative Outreach is an international, interdenominational community of individuals and small prayer groups committed to living the contemplative dimension of the Gospel in everyday life. A commitment to the daily practice of Centering Prayer is the primary expression of belonging, which transcends geographical, cultural and religious differences.

Contemplative Outreach provides material and prayerful support for each level of the journey. Individual practitioners, small Centering Prayer groups and local chapters together create a global community of oneness in silence.
