This deeper understanding helps them to better recognize that contemplative service is service freely offered without expectation of return. \nThe schedule includes: \nOne and a half hours of Centering Prayer daily\n	Presentations by the staff of one conference of Session one of An Introduction to Centering Prayer each morning.\n	Participants present portions of the same material to a small group in the afternoons. \nCriteria for Register for: Formation for Contemplative Outreach Service \nParticipated in “An Introduction to Centering Prayer”\n	Established Centering Prayer practice – minimum of daily two twenty-minute periods ~ for three years.\n	Participated in an 8- or 10-day Centering Prayer Intensive Retreat\, either before attending Formation or within one year after attending Formation\, and before becoming fully commissioned.
