SUMMARY:Centering Prayer Retreat
DESCRIPTION:  \nContemplative Outreach of Central PA presents: \nContemplative Attitudes Through the Practice of Centering Prayer \nA Retreat Based on the work of David Frenette \n\n	October 11-13\, 2019 (Fri. to Sun.) \n\n	Presenters: Roberta White and Nancy Cord-Baran \nIn the teachings of Jesus\, there are prayers\, and then there is prayer—the silent\, loving communion with the divine\, beyond words or ritual. With Father Thomas Keating’s book Open Mind\, Open Heart\, hundreds of thousands discovered the transformative power of Centering Prayer as a form of Christian meditation. Now\, with The Path of Centering Prayer\, Keating’s senior student\, friend\, and adviser\, David Frenette\, reveals the profound depths of this practice\, facilitating a deepening of intimacy with God. \nThe retreat will focus on the contemplative attitudes\, as reflected upon in David’s book. It will also include silence and Centering Prayer. \nContemplative attitudes\, the fruits of contemplative prayer\, are revealed in daily life and we will explore how to foster them. Such qualities as simplicity\, gentleness\, letting go\, resting in God\, embracing\, and finally integrating one’s experience of prayer into one’s daily life\, are paired with David’s Guided Meditations. \nThis retreat is suitable for beginners as well as seasoned practitioners. \nCheck in is from 3:00 to 5:00 Friday afternoon. There will be an optional video on the method of Centering Prayer (recommended for those new to the practice) at 4:00 PM. \nA reception and welcoming at 5:30 begins the retreat\, followed by dinner. \nOffering: $195\n	Deposit: $75 \nRoberta White has been involved with Contemplative Outreach since 2001. She has led retreats throughout the country on Centering Prayer\, the Forgiveness Prayer\, Lectio Divina\, the Welcoming Prayer Practice and Centering Prayer as an 11th-step Practice.
