SUMMARY:Presence\, Prayer \, and Writing From the Heart
DESCRIPTION:All of us have many stories to tell. Some involve your family history\, spiritual journey\, experiences in Nature\, or a life-changing situation. Stories can take many forms\, but the most compelling are the ones written from the heart\, those that move us and sometimes transform both the writer and reader. Writing from the heart demands attentiveness\, honesty\, courage\, and a commitment to engage with a creative process that pulls us into the unknown where we are often surprised at what surfaces. It’s a journey of discovery. And presence and prayer can help us along the way. \nThis writing retreat is structured for those currently working on a project\, those who want to start one\, or those who simply desire to spend time in beautiful surroundings playing with words. In addition to Centering Prayer sessions—silence can be a portal to the Source of creativity and truth-telling—there will be ample opportunities to write\, walk\, think\, and just be.

SUMMARY:9-Day Intensive and Post-Intensive Retreat - Spaces still available
DESCRIPTION:We still have a few spaces available (10/28/2023).  \nThis retreat offers three tracks simultaneously: Intensive I\, Intensive II and Post Intensive. For everyone\, there will be three sets of two 30 minute periods of Centering Prayer daily. Intensive I and Intensive II will watch video talks from Fr. Thomas Keating’s Spiritual Journey. Intensive I focuses on “The Human Condition and the Spiritual Journey”. Intensive II focuses on “Divine Love: The Heart of the Christian Spiritual Journey”. The Post Intensive has no videos and an additional hour of Centering Prayer each day. You choose the track that works best for you. Any of the tracks may be repeated multiple times. If this is your first Intensive retreat of this length\, we suggest you choose Intensive I. \nLectio Divina and a contemplative Eucharist will be offered daily\, as well as optional soul-friending with the staff. Throughout the retreat\, we will be in grand silence. \nPrerequisite: A daily practice of Centering Prayer for six months or longer. \nThe retreat will be facilitated by Susan Turpin\, Peter Morgan\, and Fr. Bill Sheehan\, OMI. Susan\, Peter\, and Fr. Bill have served within the Contemplative Outreach community for many years and have led numerous Centering Prayer retreats and workshops. \nThe fee includes all meals and lodging. Rooms are single with a sink in the room; bathrooms are shared.
