SUMMARY:Praying With Jesus
DESCRIPTION:The prayer that is commonly known as The Lord’s Prayer is one that many memorized as young children. And even though we may recite it often\, there is more to this prayer than our English translations have to offer. \nWhen approached from its Aramaic roots\, the Prayer of Jesus reveals a vision and path of following in the way of Jesus that is both inspiring and imminently practical. \nDrawing upon the work of Neil Douglas-Klotz and using a balance of teaching\, chanting\, sacred movement\, guided meditation and Centering Prayer\, this time set apart will allow retreatants to enter into a deeper relationship — both with the Prayer of Jesus and following in the way of Jesus. \nWe are planning a spacious schedule so that you will have time to walk the beautiful Mercy grounds\, and to do other deeply relaxing practices that we’ll talk about. Bring a journal and pen if you like. There is a lovely craft room at Mercy Center but bring additional art supplies if you prefer. \nRetreat Leaders:\nHenry Schoenfield\, M.Div.\, PCC is a spiritual director\, professional certified coach and UCC pastor. He loves working with individuals as well as facilitating groups and retreats based in the contemplative Christian path. \nCarol Squire After 35 years creating and leading non-profit organizations in Africa and the Indian sub-continent\, Carol now devotes her passion and energy to sharing the 4th Way Work\, an ancient spiritual path periodically revived by Sufis and 4th Way Teachers\, in particular G.I. Gurdjieff. She works with the Gurdjieff Movements and Ideas\, somatic and emotional literacy\, sound and energy healing\, \nPlease register at www.mercy-center.org or telephone 650-340-7474\nThese are unprecedented times. If finances are an issue\, please email us at registration@mercywmw.org for a learning grant discount code. We want to make sure our offerings are available to everyone.

SUMMARY:Harvesting Grace: An Eco-Spirituality Contemplative Retreat
DESCRIPTION:“When (Jesus) asked his disciples to ‘look at the lilies of the field\,’\nI think he was asking them to read the book of nature as the book of God. …\nThe lilies do not simply reflect God; rather God is being God in the lilies.”\n– Ilia Delio\, Making All Things New \nThis contemplative retreat invites you to engage with the Sacred in nature and encounter God as the Creating and Sustaining Spirit of all. It will be a time to rest in body and “rest in the grace of the world.” Anchored in Centering Prayer (CP)\, the weekend will offer scheduled options including terra divina (sacred earth) exercises\, a labyrinth walk (weather permitting) and a communal prayer service on Saturday evening. However\, there will also be plenty of open time to explore the grounds\, read\, journal\, or simply enjoy the beauty of the land and waters of Long Island Sound. \nNo Centering Prayer experience is required. This weekend is for both beginners and long-time practitioners. \nClaire Rusowicz is a certified spiritual and retreat director and a spiritual director supervisor. She co-facilitates weekly online Centering Prayer groups. \nAnne Simpkinson has been practicing Centering Prayer since 1996. An Introductory CP workshop leader\, she has led retreats and Quiet Days in New York\, Massachusetts\, and Connecticut. While living in New York\, she served as co-coordinator of Contemplative Outreach for three years. She co-facilitates the weekly online Centering Prayer groups with Claire. \nSee the link below to register.

SUMMARY:Praying with Sacred Images - via Zoom
DESCRIPTION:“Blessed are the pure in heart\, for they shall see God.”\n– Matthew 5:8 \nContemplative Outreach of Maryland and Washington invites you to join us Saturday\, Oct. 16 for half-day retreat (via Zoom) focusing on “Praying with Sacred Images” led by Rev. Carole Crumley. \nJesus tells his followers that there is a graced way of seeing that draws us toward God. Praying with holy icons\, an ancient-yet-ever-new spiritual practice\, is a vital way of training the contemplative eye for this graced way of seeing. It is a precious means of teaching\, prayer and opening to divine presence. Praying with sacred images is a way of schooling the spiritual eye\, inviting us deeper into the wholeness/oneness of God and sensitizing us to letting everything we see become a potential icon of God.\nOur time will include some sharing of our own experiences of praying with sacred images as well as time to be together in prayer with a holy icon. \nRev. Carole  Crumley is the retired senior program director of Shalem Institute and former canon educator and founder of the Center for Prayer and Pilgrimage at Washington National Cathedral. A sought-after retreat and conference leader\, Carole continues to teach and lead pilgrimages to sacred sites in Europe\, the Middle East\, and the U.S. Carole is a lover of storytelling\, moveable feasts\, and country music. \nPlease see the link below to register.
