SUMMARY:Introduction to Centering Prayer Workshop via Zoom
DESCRIPTION:A weekly\, evening meeting program to provide the basics for people seeking a path to contemplative prayer. Centering Prayer is a receptive method of silent prayer to receive the gift of contemplative prayer\, in which we experience God’s presence within us\, closer than breathing\, closer than consciousness itself. This method of prayer is both a relationship with God and a discipline to foster that relationship. \nThe first 2 meetings offer a presentation of 1. Prayer as Relationship\, 2. The Method of Centering Prayer\, 3. Thoughts and Use the Sacred Word\, and 4. Deepening Our Relationship with God. \nThe remaining 5 meetings feature videos of Father Thomas Keating on Centering Prayer followed by discussion. \nAt the conclusion of the workshop\, participants are encouraged to find a group in the Meditation Chapel  to join to continue their journey. \nRegister by sending an email to cthompson427@comcast.net. The Zoom link information will be sent to registered participants prior to January 20\, 2021.\nMeeting times are Pacific Standard Time.\nMaximum registration will be 30 people.

SUMMARY:The Process of Forgiveness: A Workshop via Zoom
DESCRIPTION:9am – noon Central Time. \nOffered online via Zoom. \nForgiveness is at the heart of the Christian tradition. Jesus called us to forgive—not only our friends but our enemies as well. Most of us are aware of this dimension of the gospel but are forced to acknowledge that we do not forgive: We have festering wounds in our psyches and in our relationships. \nIn this workshop we will consider different dimensions of the call to forgive—from a consideration of classic texts to the psychic dynamics of forgiveness. Most importantly\, we will learn a practice that opens us to the reality of forgiveness. \nThis practice comes through Contemplative Outreach\, a spiritual organism founded by Thomas Keating. \nThe Rev. Tom Ward is the retired university chaplain at the University of the South and now spends his days focusing on the contemplative dimension of the gospel\, teaching Centering Prayer\, and leading retreats. \nPlease register using the link below.

SUMMARY:The Welcoming Prayer
DESCRIPTION:Welcoming Prayer is a spiritual practice created by three of the founders of Contemplative Outreach; Mary Mrozowski\, Fr. Thomas Keating and David Frenette. This simple but effective spiritual practice helps us to remain present and to welcome moments of physical and emotional pain that we confront in our daily lives. Instead of repeating our often-unconscious attempts to avoid or deny our afflictive emotions\, we locate\, sink into\, and accept our physical reactions and emotional hurts. In the process\, our pain becomes a portal of psychological and spiritual transformation \nPresented by: Steve Standiford is a regular Centering Prayer practitioner. He leads retreats and workshops and teaches spiritual practices through Contemplative Outreach. He is also a psychotherapist in private practice in Manhattan and Westchester County.
