SUMMARY:Awakenings on the Spiritual Journey:  Insights & Practices for Growth & Healing in our Time
DESCRIPTION:VIRTUAL WEEKEND RETREAT SPONSORED BY CONTEMPLATIVE OUTREACH OF ST. LOUIS \nSusan Komis and Jim McElroy will facilitate this hybrid retreat by sharing their experience and insights of practicing and teaching Centering Prayer\, The Welcoming Prayer\, and the Human Condition. Susan will offer a reflection on Fr. Thomas’s most fundamental teaching\, The Human Condition\, and then offer her thoughts on the stages of spiritual growth from “The Awakening” to “The Sage”. Jim will provide an in-depth teaching of The Welcoming Prayer as the companion practice to Centering Prayer and as a method designed to facilitate the dismantling of the false self-system and living from present moment awareness. \nThe Welcoming Prayer is a method of consenting to God’s presence and action in our physical and emotional reactions to events and situations in daily life. It deepens our relationship with God and allows to more fully live in the eternal now. The Welcoming Prayer helps to dismantle the emotional programs and heal the wounds of a lifetime by addressing them where they are stored—in the body. \nPlease see the website link below for more information.

SUMMARY:Half-Day Online Retreat Series: "Invitation from God"
DESCRIPTION:Centering Prayer: Revisiting the Fundamentals\nHalf-day retreats to deepen awareness of God’s transforming presence in our lives. \n“Invitation from God”\nAn interview with Thomas Keating—the third in this COMW retreat series\nSaturday\, April 17\, 2021\, 9 a.m. Eastern Time to noon (via Zoom) \nIn our third half-day retreat in this series presented by Contemplative Outreach of Maryland and Washington (COMW)\, we will hear Thomas Keating describe the spiritual journey as a process of transformation in which we move through the levels of our consciousness\, releasing old traumas and spiraling towards the presence of the Divine in our inner selves. \nIn Centering Prayer\, we consent to and are sustained through the dark nights\, the losses and the letting go of purification\, through which we are gradually transformed. The gifts and fruits of the Spirit begin to rise up within us\, manifesting in our way of being in the world. Through our consent to this pattern of dying and rising in the spiritual journey\, we live out the pattern of Christ’s own death and Resurrection\, i.e.\, the Paschal Mystery. As we are transformed\, the Divine presence in us manifests as peace\, joy\, gratitude and freedom. \nThe invitation to embark on the spiritual journey is universal. In the final video of our series\, Thomas explains the Parable of the Great Banquet as a representation of God’s gracious\, open invitation to everyone in the human family to embark upon the spiritual journey of transformation in Christ. \n*This Retreat will be held virtually on Zoom\nPRE-REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED: https://zoom.us/meeting/register/tJwsf-2prjsrHt0cBR6QzQwINOGvQ2H2dyPx\nLEARN MORE: tinyurl.com/COMWApril17Retreat
