SUMMARY:Advent Centering Prayer Retreat
DESCRIPTION:This weekend retreat will focus on how Centering Prayer can heighten one’s understanding and appreciation for the season of Advent. \nCentering Prayer is a form of Christian silent meditation where one lets go of thoughts during periods of prayer typically lasting 20 minutes. It is rooted in the self-emptying love that forms the heart of Jesus’ teaching and life. The effect on those who practice it is an every-increasing awareness of the God’s action and presence in the course of ordinary life. \nScholarship assistance is available. Please contact Reservations for application\, Reservations@stmaryssewanee.org\, 931-598-5342.

SUMMARY:The Healing Power of Centering Prayer
DESCRIPTION:Led by The Rev. Tim Grayson \n“You have made us for yourself\, O Lord\, and our heart is restless until it rests in you.”\n– St. Augustine \nThomas Keating\, one of the founders of the modern Centering Prayer movement\, popularized the Centering Prayer process as “divine therapy” because it enables the healing of deep psychological wounds and promotes spiritual growth. According to Keating\, this therapy leads to the “purification and healing of the unconscious\, thus deepening the practitioner’s relationship with God.” Acknowledging and releasing troubling thoughts that bubble up from deep within helps deconstruct the false self that emerges in childhood from our efforts to find security amid damaging societal and familial influences. \nIn this retreat\, Tim Grayson\, a member of COMW’s coordinating team and an Episcopal priest\, will review the work of renowned spiritual guides such as Keating\, Basil Pennington\, Thomas Merton\, Cynthia Bourgeault\, and Jim Finley\, who have written extensively on the healing properties of Centering Prayer. The program will include three Centering Prayer sessions and ample time for discussion. \nLocation: The Cathedral of St Matthew the Apostle\n1725 Rhode Island Ave\, NW\, Washington\, DC\n(Please enter at the lower level through the door next to the garage\, and note that the church garage is closed on Saturdays\, but metered street parking is available\, as well as two parking garages close-by.)
