SUMMARY:Centering Prayer Weekend Retreat
DESCRIPTION:This silent/contemplative retreat is for those who wish to deepen their practice of Centering Prayer. The weekend will provide an opportunity to settle into silence and to engage God in a deeper way. Thomas Keating teaches that a regular practice of contemplative prayer prepares us to receive the grace of an ever-deepening connection to the Divine within us. On Saturday evening\, those who wish will have the opportunity to watch a segment featuring Fr. Thomas Keating: “The Mystery of God” from the DVD: The Gift of Life. As we emerge from our time of sheltering\, there is a yearning for communal silence. This weekend offers a community of support which can allow us a deeper space for God to speak and for us to listen. \nPrerequisite: A regular practice of Centering Prayer or Silent Meditation
