Contemplative Prayer

Tuesdays at 7PM

in the nave of the church


​Feeling the urge to pray to God beyond thoughts, words and emotions? Centering prayer may be for you. This simple method prepares us to receive the gift of contemplation; simply resting in the presence of God — open, alert, receptive. Each 60 minute Tuesday session includes an opening prayer, 30 minutes of silent contemplation, a short reading from a contemplative or mystic author, reflection and conversation, and a very short service of compline (nighttime prayer).  For more information about this prayer you might visit contemplativeoutreach.org and centeringnm.com, or contact Larry.
