SUMMARY:The Enneagram - a Christian Wisdom Approach
DESCRIPTION:From a Wisdom perspective\, the overarching message of Jesus’ teaching is the transformation of our ordinary ego-driven consciousness. In the scriptures\, this is spoken of as stepping into the larger mind\, or putting on the mind of Christ. The Enneagram is a tool based on ancient wisdom that can help us to see the contours of ego — appreciating the strengths and limitations of personality as well as revealing the path for growth and transformation. Through a balance of\nteaching and practice\, this retreat will explore structures of personality that make up the nine different points of the Enneagram. With a greater understanding of how these structures work\, participants will be able to approach the Enneagram as a tool for the transformation of consciousness that Jesus calls us to — a tool that includes and goes beyond the descriptions of the nine types. \nThe program includes sessions of Centering Prayer. \nHenry Schoenfield is a member of the service team for Contemplative Outreach of Boston and a board member and senior student in Cynthia Bourgeault’s Wisdom network\, Wisdom Waypoints. He has studied the Enneagram of personality with Russ Hudson among other teachers and is certified in the Integrative\nEnneagram assessment tool (iEQ9). He is an ordained minister in the United Church of Christ\, a spiritual director\, certified professional coach\, and retreat and workshop facilitator. \nTo register\, email: info@henryschoenfield.com

SUMMARY:God is Love – The Heart of All Creation - via Zoom
DESCRIPTION:God is Love: The Heart of All Creation Series continues and builds on the works of Thomas Keating over the past 30+ years\, beginning with the Spiritual Journey series. It offers a vision of hope and a view of reality that at once integrates the sciences\, religion and humankind’s place in the cosmos as divine in origin\, unifying in purpose\, unfolding in its grandeur. \nThis nine-week God is Love video series is Fr. Thomas Keating’s latest in the Spiritual Journey Series. It is a masterful overview of how we can grow and deepen our relationship with God and how God manifests through us. The presentations both motivate and inspire us to be faithful to the Centering Prayer practice. \nThomas also shares how God invites us to draw closer to Him and to allow God to transform us through Centering Prayer. This is a “must attend” series\, especially for those who have been doing the practice for some time. Class session will begin with 20 minutes of Centering Prayer. \nThis is a nine-week class\, offered on Thursday evenings\, September 25 – November 20\, 2025 \nTimes listed are Mountain time (Denver\, CO) \nClick the website link below to learn more and register.

SUMMARY:Introduction to Centering Prayer in German Language – Stille finden mitten im Leben
DESCRIPTION:In den 70er Jahren begannen Thomas Keating und andere den Reichtum der christlichen\, stillen Meditationspraxis (Kontemplation) wiederzuentdecken. Aus diesen Anfängen ist eine Praxis entstanden\, die inzwischen weltweit verbreitet ist und das Gebet der Sammlung (Englisch: Centering Prayer) genannt wird.\nDie praktizierte Stille tut einfach gut und kann heilsam wirken. \nIn diesem Workshop wird das wortlose Gebet der Sammlung (Centering Prayer)\, einer modernen Form des Herzensgebets\, anhand vier einfacher Schritte vorgestellt und eingeübt. \nNeben der Einführung in die Methode gibt es die Gelegenheit Fragen und Austausch. Ein Anfang\, um “beherzt” dem modernen Leben zu begegnen.\nDer Kurs ist kostenlos. \n27.9.2025 in Berlin Steglitz (Paulus-Gemeinde Lichterfelde)\, 10-14:00 Uhr. \nVeranstaltungsort: Dorfkirche der Paulus Gemeinde Berlin Steglitz-Lichterfelde\, Hindenburgdamm 101a\, 12203 Berlin.
