SUMMARY:Introduction to Centering Prayer Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Church of the Assumption\, 29 Jefferson Ave\, Emerson\, NJ \nAN INTRODUCTION TO CENTERING PRAYER \nSaturday\, November 2\, 2019 \n9:00 – 12:00 \n “When you pray\, go to your inner room\, close the door and pray to your Father in secret. And your Father\, who sees in secret\, will reward you.” MT (6:6) \nCentering Prayer is a method of silent prayer based on the wisdom saying of Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount. It prepares us to receive the gift of contemplative prayer in which we receive God’s presence within us\, closer than breathing\, closer than thinking\, closer than consciousness itself. \nCentering Prayer is not meant to replace other types of prayer; rather it casts a new light and depth of meaning on them. Centering Prayer is at the same time a relationship with God and a discipline to foster that relationship – a movement beyond conversation\, to communion. \nJoin us in this introductory workshop to learn about – and experience — the practice of Centering Prayer. Appropriate for beginners and experienced practitioners wanting to refresh their practice. \nPresenter: Maureen Hanley\, Contemplative Outreach \nFor information\, contact: Cynthia Allen\, cynthiaallen6@gmail.com\, 201-417-3908 or see the flyer below under "additional information."

SUMMARY:Centering Prayer Retreat
DESCRIPTION:Contemplative Living \nOctober 20–24\, 2019 (Sun. to Thurs.) \nPresenter: Mary Dwyer \nThis five-day retreat will explore how our contemplative practices shape our daily life. Contemplative Living is the call to bring the contemplative dimension of the Gospel into our every day\, ordinary lives filled with ordinary activities. \nHow do we lead ordinary lives with extraordinary love? \nWe will share in community extended periods of Centering Prayer\, silence\, and conferences exploring the Welcoming Prayer\, Forgiveness Process/Practice\, Lectio Divina\, and other prayer practices. Our hope is that each of us commits to a personal "rule of life" that supports and sustains our deepest desires. “… Centering Prayer is a life to be lived. Not just a method.” (Thomas Keating). \nPrior Centering Prayer experience is helpful. \nOffering: $275 per person (includes overnights & meals)\n	Deposit: $75 (nonrefundable) \nMary Dwyer is a long-time student of Fr. Thomas Keating and has been practicing Centering Prayer since the 1980s. In the early 1990’s\, she lived at Chrysalis House\, a contemplative live-in community experiment blessed by Fr. Thomas. Her housemates included Mary Mrozowski\, David Frenette and Cathy McCarthy. The community lived according to a rule of life\, and became an incubator of practice and programs in the early years of Contemplative Outreach’s growth. It was her experience at Chyrsalis House – what she refers to as her “inpatient” or “residential treatment time” – that proved to her that a life of prayer\, consent and practice is real\, stable and deeply rewarding. Mary Mrozowski taught her that a devoted life of prayer was the real work of life; what we did the rest of the time was just how we made a living. \nIn 2008 she met her beloved Juan through the Living Flame program. She moved to Miami\, FL in 2009 and they married. Juan recently retired and they moved back to Erie\, PA in July\, 2018. \nMary is currently serving as a member of the Gift Committee of Contemplative Outreach. She previously has served as Chairperson of the Contemplative Outreach\, Ltd. Governing Board; member of the Contemplative Outreach Faculty; Member of the Welcoming Prayer service team\, and Coordinator for the Living Flame program. Mary now devotes her time to giving retreats and workshops on behalf of Contemplative Outreach throughout the US and internationally.

SUMMARY:Centering Prayer Retreat
DESCRIPTION:  \nContemplative Outreach of Central PA presents: \nContemplative Attitudes Through the Practice of Centering Prayer \nA Retreat Based on the work of David Frenette \n\n	October 11-13\, 2019 (Fri. to Sun.) \n\n	Presenters: Roberta White and Nancy Cord-Baran \nIn the teachings of Jesus\, there are prayers\, and then there is prayer—the silent\, loving communion with the divine\, beyond words or ritual. With Father Thomas Keating’s book Open Mind\, Open Heart\, hundreds of thousands discovered the transformative power of Centering Prayer as a form of Christian meditation.

Such qualities as simplicity\, gentleness\, letting go\, resting in God\, embracing\, and finally integrating one’s experience of prayer into one’s daily life\, are paired with David’s Guided Meditations. \nThis retreat is suitable for beginners as well as seasoned practitioners. \nCheck in is from 3:00 to 5:00 Friday afternoon. There will be an optional video on the method of Centering Prayer (recommended for those new to the practice) at 4:00 PM. \nA reception and welcoming at 5:30 begins the retreat\, followed by dinner. \nOffering: $195\n	Deposit: $75 \nRoberta White has been involved with Contemplative Outreach since 2001. She has led retreats throughout the country on Centering Prayer\, the Forgiveness Prayer\, Lectio Divina\, the Welcoming Prayer Practice and Centering Prayer as an 11th-step Practice.

SUMMARY:Centering Prayer Weekend Retreat
DESCRIPTION:Opening to God in Sound & Silence:	Bringing Chant into the Heart of Prayer \nOctober 4-6\, 2019 (Fri. to Sun.) \nPresenter: Keith Kristich \nCultures and religions all over the world raise their voice in sacred song and chant to connect with the One who is within. In this weekend retreat\, we will focus on bringing the universal practice of chant into our contemplative prayer and meditation practice. Chant is an intimate way of deepening the heartfulness inherent in contemplative prayer. Cynthia Bourgeault teaches “What mediation accomplishes in the silence\, chanting accomplishes in the sound.” In this way\, chanting is a beautiful way to externalize our internal desire for the One within. \nParticipants can expect a balance between sound and silence\, chanting and silent contemplation\, as well as\, some time to write\, reflect and share in small group conversation. Although it may be of particular interest to practitioners of Centering Prayer\, it is open to anyone with a contemplative practice of their own. \nKeith Kristich is certified with the Shalem Institute for Spiritual Formation in leading contemplative prayer groups and retreats\, as well as with Contemplative Outreach as a presenter of Centering Prayer. \nOffering: $190\n	Deposit: $75 nonrefundable

Bill Sheehan\, OMI and Elizabeth Oleksak\, SP \n11TH-STEP CENTERING PRAYER\n	October 4th-6th\, 2019. \nCentering Prayer is a method that can be used for doing the 11th-Step. It improves our conscious contact with and deepens our relationship to our Higher Power\, whether we call that power God\, Allah\, Mother\, another name or no name. It is simply moving deep within oneself\, in silence\, saying nothing\, asking for nothing\, just being and allowing our Higher Power to be with us. \nRetreat begins on Friday with supper at 6pm and concludes with lunch at noon on Sunday.   \nMadeleine Joy\, SP\, Fr.

DESCRIPTION:  \nPraying the Scriptures – Lectio Divina Tradition \nFriday\, October 4\, 2019 \n10 A.M. – 3 P.M. \nwith Father Carl Arico \nContemplative Outreach describes Lectio Divina as follows: “Like Centering Prayer\, Lectio Divina cultivates contemplative prayer.  Unlike Centering Prayer\, Lectio Divina is a participatory active practice that uses thoughts\, images and insights to enter into a conversation with God.” Father Arico defines Lectio Divina as “a four-step dance with God to read\, to reflect\, to respond\, to rest.  It deepens our relationship with God.”  \nFor more information\, go to www.nexusjourney.org.   \n	The $59 fee includes lunch. \nChrist United Methodist Church\n	410 Holden Road\n	Greensboro\, NC 27410
