Training in silent prayer: Centering Prayer is a receptive method of silent prayer that prepares us to receive the gift of contemplative prayer. In this prayer, we experience God's presence within us. It is closer than breathing, closer than thinking, closer than consciousness itself. This prayer form, as Fr. Keating says, is both a relationship with God and a discipline to foster that relationship.
Centering Prayer Adds depth to prayer life: Centering Prayer is not meant to replace other kinds of prayer. Centering Prayer adds depth of meaning to all prayer. It facilitates the movement from more active modes of prayer – verbal, mental or affective prayer – into a receptive prayer of resting in God. Centering Prayer emphasizes prayer as a personal relationship with God and as a movement beyond conversation with Christ to communion with Christ.
Meant for all people: This method is open to all people. There are no requirements or pre-requisites, only your willingness to spend a few minutes twice a day.

Therese Saulnier is a long-standing member of Contemplative Outreach. She has been praying Centering Prayer for over 30 years and praying the Forgiveness Prayer for over 25 years. Therese shares her experience that before she learned the Forgiveness Prayer she really did not know how to forgive. Therese will share the process of forgiveness and share a way to open to God’s healing presence and action in our search for forgiveness – the Forgiveness Prayer. There will also be Centering Prayer periods during the retreat.

What is the Forgiveness Prayer?
Come to the Forgiveness Prayer Workshop and explore the need for forgiveness and the nature of forgiveness. Come to learn the Forgiveness Prayer, a way to open to God’s healing presence and action when you are hurt, wounded or offended. The Forgiveness Prayer is a prayer in which we open to God’s grace to learn to forgive.

When the disciples asked Jesus how to pray, he taught them the Lord’s Prayer. In this prayer Jesus teaches us that forgiveness is one of the essential conditions out of which all of our prayer must proceed if it is to be acceptable to God.
The command is clear: if you are a Christian, you must forgive. But there are two very powerful, often problematic questions involved with this imperative:
How do I forgive? What if I want to forgive but cannot?

Experience with Centering Prayer is suggested for participants.

“A powerful inter play between the true self (who I am), the false self (who I project myself to be or the only self I know myself to be) and the voice of Thomas Merton (a voice of wisdom) challenging me to be the self I am called to be – the transformed self. Superbly acted, mirroring the
complexity of the human person, celebrating the role of the wisdom person who we need to meet in our lives. Doug challenges us to find that person.” – Father Carl Arico

“Doug’s ability to weave Merton’s brilliance into his own life experience is profound, moving,
and insightful.” – Teresa Scott

“Doug has created a contemporary Seven Story Mountain in theatrical form.” – Carol A. Joyce, Phd
