SUMMARY:Simple Presence - A Contemplative Prayer Experience with the Vision of Contemplative Outreach - via Zoom
DESCRIPTION:In Simple Presence\, the divine Presence becomes an invitation for our community to listen deeply to the Spirit’s movement and action within. The event will offer a communal prayer experience dedicated to contemplation of the Vision Statement of Contemplative Outreach: “We embrace transformation in Christ\, both in ourselves and in others through the practice of Centering Prayer.” \nEach participant enters into inner awareness individually and then opens to the source of the Presence\, which is shared by other members of the group. The underlying commonality of the intention held is sacred. Simple Presence is being offered to those who are engaged with Contemplative Outreach on any level or simply have an interest in this community. It will be assumed that participants have a regular Centering Prayer practice and are familiar with Lectio Divina and the Welcoming Prayer. \nAlan Krema will lead this workshop and it will include embodied prayer\, chant\, reflective readings\, Centering Prayer\, Welcoming Prayer\, and wisdom sharing. Come prepared to sit in Simple Presence with the sacred words of the Vision. This prayerful event will be approximately two hours in length and will be presented online as Zoom gathering. \nPlease use the link below to register

SUMMARY:The Contemplative Spirituality of Icons and Iconography
DESCRIPTION:Contemplative Enrichment Day with Marek Czarnecki \nIcons in the Orthodox Christian tradition have been used as visual theology and as windows into the spiritual world. Through sacred imagery\, the Holy Spirit speaks to the believer\, revealing deep truths that may not be evident in other ways\, leading the believer into the depths of prayer and contemplation. During this day\, we will share the spiritual foundations of icons\, reveal the contemplative practice of writing icons\, and experience the contemplative practice of praying with icons. \nThis program will be offered both in-person and online via Zoom. Information on how to access the program on Zoom will be sent to participants in advance. \nThis program will include a morning and an afternoon session of Centering Prayer. \nMarek Czarnecki is a gifted iconographer and artist\, teaching and writing icons out of his liturgical arts studio\, Seraphic Restorations\, in Meriden\, Connecticut. He is a student of Russian Orthodox iconographer Ksenia Pokrovsky. Marek is a popular icon workshop and retreat leader. His icons have been featured in numerous exhibits\, videos and articles\, including The New York Times and St. Anthony Messenger.
