SUMMARY:Silence that Connects the World – Session 1 (via Zoom)
DESCRIPTION:Session 1. Consent to God’s Presence \nTheme: The heart of Centering Prayer is consent — letting go and allowing God’s presence and action within. \n“Centering prayer is not so much an exercise of attention as intention. Our intention is to be present to God’s presence and actions in our lives.”\n— Thomas Keating \nStep into Stillness \nPause from the noise of daily life and reconnect with the divine presence within. Join us for an online gathering of centering prayer practitioners—a simple yet profound space for silence\, reflection\, and shared practice within a global community. Together\, we’ll explore stillness\, presence\, and the richness of the practice in community. \nWhat to Expect \nShared silence and practice\nBrief teaching and reflection\nSmall-group sharing\nEncouragement in the contemplative path \n2:00-3:30pm UTC +1 (8am Eastern Time).  \nPlease see the link below to register and obtain the Zoom link. \nThis is the first of six sessions: \n1.    Consent to God’s Presence – 7 Feb 2026\n2.    The Fruits of Silence – 11 Apr 2026\n3.    Letting Go of Thoughts – 6 Jun 2026\n4.    Living the Contemplative Path – 18 Jul 2026\n5.    Embracing Vulnerability – 5 Sep 2026\n6.    Healing Presence in the World – 14 Nov 2026
