SUMMARY:Lenten Retreat
DESCRIPTION:Every Lent\, we are called to go apart\, to enter into silence\, and allow grace to flow more freely within us and through us. This year\, rather than going to a desert\, Mary Anne Best\, LeAnn Billups\, and Carolyn Goddard invite you to come to the mountaintop and set an intention to allow ourselves to be transfigured by silence\, led deeper into the grace that heals. \nJoin us to have your heart nourished. It is deep in the heart of silence\, beauty\, and our common intentionality that we can have ears to hear and take-in the gifts of purification\, illumination\, and union. Join in receiving these gifts. This is a silent retreat that includes: \n-Selected excerpts from the videos of Thomas Keating\n	-More than 2 ½ hours of Centering Prayer daily\n	-The practice of Lectio Divina and Visio Divina\n	-Daily prayerful movement/yoga\n	-Celebration of the Eucharist\n	-Opportunity to meet individually for spiritual companioning with retreat leaders\n	-Silence and solitude \nProgram begins with a Welcome to St. Mary’s Sewanee at 4 p.m.\, Friday\, February 28 and concludes after lunch and a “Sending Forth” at 1 p.m.\, Sunday\, March 1. \nRetreat Leaders: \nMary Anne Best serves as development director of Contemplative Outreach\, Ltd.\, stewarding the raising of funds and the production of special projects.

She is a member and trustee of a contemplative Christian community in Austin\, Texas; mother and grandmother of two beloved grandchildren; and enjoys the silence\, walking\, yoga\, nature\, and travel with beloveds to faraway places. \nLeAnn Billups leads yoga as prayerful movement on Centering Prayer retreats near and far.  In 1989\, she was drawn to yoga because of chronic back pain. She discovered Iyengar and was intrigued by the mental and physical aspects of the practice\, the discipline\, precision of alignment\, and how studies of yoga lead to self-awareness. The transformative power of the practice inspired her to become a certified Iyengar instructor in 2015. LeAnn is a Centering Prayer facilitator and a member of a contemplative Christian community in Austin\, Texas. She enjoys time with her two daughters\, the outdoors\, gardening\, sports\, yoga and nature. \nCarolyn Goddard has taught high school English and religion classes\, served as an associate pastor at Christ the King Church and worked for Thistle Farms\, a non-profit social enterprise\, both in Nashville\, Tennessee.

SUMMARY:Forgiveness Prayer Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Forgiveness Prayer Workshop \nLed by Therese Saulnier\, Contemplative Outreach Limited \nSaturday\, February 29\, 2020 \nRegistration and Coffee: 9:00 A.M. \nWorkshop: 9:30 A.M. – 3:30 P.M \nPlease bring lunch; coffee and tea provided \nChrist Church Cathedral\n	166 Market Street\n	Lexington\, Kentucky \nCome to the Forgiveness Prayer Workshop and explore the need for forgiveness and the nature of forgiveness. Come to learn the Forgiveness Prayer\, a way to open to God’s healing presence and action when you are hurt\, wounded or offended. The Forgiveness Prayer is a prayer in which we open to God’s grace to learn to forgive. \nWhen the disciples asked Jesus how to pray\, he taught them the Lord’s Prayer. In this prayer Jesus teaches us that forgiveness is one of the essential conditions out of which all of our prayer must proceed if it is to be acceptable to God. \nThe command is clear: if you are a Christian\, you must forgive. But there are two very powerful\, often problematic questions involved with this imperative: \nHow do I forgive?\n	What if I want to forgive but cannot? \nExperience with Centering Prayer is suggested for participants. \nThis workshop is for those who are new to the Forgiveness Prayer and for those who want to deepen their experience of the Forgiveness Prayer. \nTherese Saulnier is a long standing member of Contemplative Outreach.  She has been praying Centering Prayer for over 30 years and praying the Forgiveness Prayer for over 25 years. Therese shares her experience that before she learned the Forgiveness Prayer she really did not know how to forgive.  Therese will share the process of forgiveness and share a way to open to God’s healing presence and action in our search for forgiveness – the Forgiveness Prayer.  There will also be centering prayer periods during the workshop. \n
