SUMMARY:Centering Prayer Introductory Workshop Retreat
DESCRIPTION:THREE-DAY CENTERING PRAYER RETREAT\nMay 17 – 19\, 2024 \nCENTERING PRAYER INTRODUCTORY RETREAT\n– Learning to improve our conscious contact with the God of our understanding through prayer and meditation together. – \n“Silence is a great common denominator between people and also between us and God. God’s first language is silence.  Everything else is a poor translation. It is by entering into silence that we are best able to hear God.”  Fr. Thomas Keating\nThis retreat offers:  An in-depth experience of silent prayer/meditation; an introduction to Centering Prayer (including its use within an 11th Step Practice); and a presentation on The Human Condition.\nWe have come to believe that true healing can only happen though our conscious connection with a Higher Power.  As we consent to God’s presence and action within us through the Centering Prayer practice\, we open ourselves to the exact healing we most need.\nThis retreat also includes four continuing sessions by Zoom on Saturdays 9:00-10:00 am Eastern Time; dates TBD by attendees.\nThis is an opportunity for deeper union with God through communal sharing of silence and stillness. For those making their first silent retreat\, there will be periods of silent prayer as well as presentations on “The Method” with discussion.  We will also share videos by Fr. Thomas Keating on The Human Condition.\nDetails:  Location is the Sisters of Charity Motherhouse\, 5900 Delhi Road\, Mt.

SUMMARY:Introduction to Centering Prayer
DESCRIPTION:Sourced from the depths of Christian contemplative tradition\, Centering Prayer has emerged as a life-changing prayer practice for those who embrace it. Centering Prayer is a receptive method of Christian silent prayer that prepares us to receive the gift of contemplative prayer; prayer in which we experience God’s presence within us\, closer than breathing\, closer than thinking\, closer than consciousness itself. Its purpose is to foster a deeper intimacy with Christ through the silence and stillness of contemplative prayer.\nJoin us to learn the method or to renew your practice of this ancient form of silent prayer. \nPlease see the link below to register.
