Anam Cara: Thomas Merton, and Pursuing Relationships That Enlighten Our Lives

February 21, 2026 @ 8:30 am - 4:30 pm

Though Thomas Merton craved the solitude of a hermitage and the silence in which “God shines there and is immediately found,” his mysticism and writing life were deeply fed and influenced by special friendships that he developed both in person and through a prolific correspondence that connected him to writers and spiritual thinkers all over the world. Sophfronia Scott will discuss how we can find and nurture similar bonds today to the great benefit of our lives and work.

This event includes sessions of Centering Prayer.
