SUMMARY:Prayer for Healing and Wholeness in Our Post-Election World
DESCRIPTION:No matter the outcome of this year’s US election\, our nation will face tremendous challenges following months of divisive\, wounding campaign rhetoric. During this weekend of intentional silence and stillness\, we will seek to create a spaciousness within in order to nurture the enduring vision and experiences of the Sacred. This silent retreat will include periods of Centering Prayer; contemplative practices; simple body exercises; contemplative conversation; and quiet time for reflection\, reading\, and walking the grounds. We will be encouraged by the words and poetry of contemporary contemplative visionaries including Constance FitzGerald\, ODC\, Teilhard de Chardin\, Ilia Delio\, Thomas Keating\, and Cynthia Bourgeault\, who echo the ancient prophets’ trust that contemplative prayer\, “can bring within the realm of possibility … the paradigm shifts and transformation required to invent a new kind of earth community.” (C. FitzGerald). While this retreat is intended for those with a Centering Prayer or other contemplative prayer practices\, a very brief review of Centering Prayer will be provided on Saturday morning. \nPlease see the link below to register.

SUMMARY:6 DAY (5 NIGHT) CONTEMPLATIVE OUTREACH INTENSIVE SILENT CENTERING PRAYER RETREAT
DESCRIPTION:This retreat\, called an “Intensive Retreat” by Contemplative Outreach\, provides an opportunity to deepen your established Centering Prayer practice in an atmosphere of silence and community\, away from the busyness of daily life\, and to allow your mind\, body and spirit to surrender to God’s presence and action within. It has an educational component to immerse you both in the practice of Centering Prayer and\, increasingly\, in the conceptual background of the spiritual practice. \nEach day there will be about three and a half hours of Centering Prayer\, ranging from 20 to 30-minute periods of prayer\, some back-to-back with a contemplative walk in between. In addition\, participants will view videos from the Thomas Keating “Spiritual Journey” video series. Except for opening and closing times\, silence will be observed throughout the retreat\, including at meals. Participants can choose to remain in silence after the videos or participate in a short sharing session on the teaching. \nBefore attending the retreat\, you should have an established daily practice of Centering Prayer with two 20-minute periods of prayer a day for at least six months to one year. \nPlease see the link below to register.
