SUMMARY:3-Day Contemplative Retreat
DESCRIPTION:“In silence\, God ceases to be an object and becomes an experience.”\n— Thomas Merton \nSharing silent prayer in the context of a retreat offers a profound experience of soul-to-soul connection — with fellow practitioners and with all living beings. \nThis 4-day retreat is designed to nourish the soul’s deep longing for intimacy with God\, inviting participants into a transformative journey through contemplation and the sacred practice of silence. \nHeld entirely in silence\, the retreat includes: \nTwo daily input sessions to deepen understanding of the Centering Prayer method and reflect on the contemplative path;\nMultiple periods of Centering Prayer each day;\nOpportunities for soul sharing with the guide (if desired);\nPersonal time for reflection and journaling. \nIt is recommended that: Participants have attended either a weekend Centering Prayer retreat or a one-day introductory workshop and maintain some level of ongoing practice. \nPlease see the link below for more information and to register.

SUMMARY:Black Contemplative Prayer Virtual Summit
DESCRIPTION:Hosted by Pastor Tia Norman\, friend of Contemplative Outreach and Centering Prayer facilitator. \nOn February 21-22 (9am-4pm/CST)\, the Black Contemplative Prayer Virtual Summit hosts its second annual gathering bringing together black spiritual teachers and thought leaders to explore prayer\, activism\, and community. \nIn the contemplative community\, diversity is essential. This summit addresses a critical question that arises in contemplative communities and Centering Prayer groups: “Where are the facilitators and practitioners of color?” \nBy providing a platform for Black contemplative speakers and teachers\, this one-of-a-kind summit will center Black voices\, offering the wider contemplative community language and tools that may help in our efforts to include\, invite\, and diversify the conversation on spiritual growth\, transformation\, and practice. \nWhether you join live or watch the replays later\, this summit is an opportunity you won’t want to miss. \nRegister is open to ALL: https://www.blackcontemplativesummit.com/?via=cythomas\n$125 USD
