Do you seek the still, small voice of God?
This workshop will help you to become more open to the God within and hear with the “ear of the heart.”
Centering Prayer is a renewal of an ancient form of Christian prayer. It is a method of consenting to the presence and action of Christ in the stillness of our being. It is an exercise of faith, hope and love, moving beyond conversation with Christ to communion. The fruit of this prayer is a growing sense of God’s leading us beyond anxiety into an inner stillness and peace, and outward in compassion and service. Anyone desiring to deepen his or her prayer life will benefit from this introduction to Centering Prayer as the workshop is for those who are new to Centering Prayer and for those who wish to renew their practice.
