DESCRIPTION:Contemplative Outreach of Columbus is offering a Silent Saturday.

SUMMARY:The Welcoming Prayer - via Zoom
DESCRIPTION:Led by Mary Dwyer\n\nThe Welcoming Prayer is a method of consenting to God’s presence and action in the midst of the ordinary routines of our daily lives. To practice Welcoming allows us to make choices free of the domination of the false self system. We begin to respond rather than automatically react to life on life’s terms. As the originator of Welcoming\, Mary Mrozowski\, stated\, “To welcome and to let go is one of the most radically loving\, faith-filled gestures we can make in each moment of each day. It is an open-hearted embrace of all that is in ourselves and in the world.” \nDuring this Zoom Workshop we will learn the conceptual background\, The Welcoming Prayer practice\, and have time to practice in community. Please register using the link below. \nAbout Mary Dwyer\n\nMary Dwyer is a longtime student of Fr. Thomas Keating and has been practicing Centering Prayer since the 1980s. In the early 1990’s\, she lived at Chrysalis House\, a contemplative live-in community experiment blessed by Fr. Thomas. Her housemates included Mary Mrozowski\, David Frenette and Cathy McCarthy. The community lived according to a rule of life\, and became an incubator of practice and programs in the early years of Contemplative Outreach’s growth. It was her experience at Chyrsalis House – what she refers to as her “inpatient” or “residential treatment time” – that proved to her that a life of prayer\, consent and practice is real\, stable and deeply rewarding. Mary Mrozowski taught her that a devoted life of prayer was the real work of life; what we did the rest of the time was just how we made a living. \nMary is currently in private practice as an LCSW in the Erie\, PA area. She also serves as a member of the Gift Committee and the Welcoming Prayer Service Team of Contemplative Outreach. Mary now devotes her time between private practice and giving retreats and workshops on behalf of Contemplative Outreach throughout the US and internationally.
