Make it stand out

Silence is God’s first language. Everything else is a poor translation.

~ Thomas Keating

Centering Prayer Weekend Retreat

Centering Prayer is a receptive method of Christian silent prayer which deepens our relationship with God, the Indwelling Presence … a prayer in which we can experience God’s presence within us, closer than breathing, closer than thinking, closer than consciousness itself. (Contemplative Outreach)

In this weekend retreat, participants will be offered opportunities to practice Centering Prayer, be in sacred silence, enjoy the outdoors, and learn more about Thomas Keating’s teachings.
