SUMMARY:Grounding the Prayer of the Cloud with the Prayer of the Heart
DESCRIPTION:An e-Introduction to Heart Intention for Centering Prayer Practitioners \n with David Frenette \n Tuesday May 3 – Sunday May 22\, 2022 \nFree; suggested donation $45 USD \nThe world is rapidly changing.  Heart Intention is a contemplative practice that\, with Centering Prayer\, helps us respond to the new challenges we are facing. In Centering Prayer and Heart Intention\, two great streams of Christian contemplation – the Prayer of the Cloud and the Prayer of the Heart – meet\, in service of an integrative approach to meditation. \nJoin us in learning Heart Intention\, a contemplative practice that: \n*  lets intention and meaning flow into our lives; \n*  integrates the receptive simplicity of Centering Prayer with a nuanced practice that is embodied\, engaged\, and that embraces our humanity; \n*  helps us act in our challenging world from a heart more present to God. \nThis three-week online class includes three new recorded video teachings\, three live Zoom practice sessions with time for Q/A with David\, and access to written resources. This course is for anyone looking for ways to meaningfully integrate their Centering Prayer practice into daily activity and contemplative service. \nOne email will be sent each Tuesday with a link to the recorded video\, and live practice sessions with be on Sunday.  The practice sessions will be at noon Pacific Time\, UTC -7 (3pm Eastern Time\, 8pm London Time). These sessions will be recorded for those that cannot attend.

SUMMARY:Mystic Series: Gift of Tears
DESCRIPTION:In-person and via Zoom at the Center for Contemplative Living in Elm Grove\, Wisconsin\, USA \nIn ancient times contemplatives aspired to the Gift of Tears. Here and there it is treasured even today. Mingled perhaps with some ambivalence. We will touch on several perspectives of the nature of this delicate Gift: historical\, contemporary\, psychological\, and spiritual. We’ll also look at the different types and purposes of tears\, how the Gift manifests\, and key figures who’ve had the Gift of Tears. \nThe evening will begin with a 20-minute Centering Prayer sit\, followed by the presentation\, and time for Q&A and reflective discussion.  If you have not had previous exposure to Centering Prayer\, please let us know beforehand and we will arrange to give you a brief explanation of the method a few minutes before the event begins. \nPRESENTER: Debbie Harmon has practiced Centering Prayer for over 30 years. Since the 1990s\, she has been involved with Contemplative Outreach in the Midwest\, spoken on a variety of spiritual topics\, facilitated groups and retreats\, and been a commissioned presenter of the Introductory Centering Prayer Workshop. Debbie is a spiritual director and holds a Master of Divinity and Master’s in Pastoral Counseling from Loyola University Chicago. \nDonations up to $20 are welcome. Please register by May 12th by clicking the link below.
