Centering Prayer ~ Meeting Each Monday via Zoom
We are gathering virtually for centering prayer every Monday from 7:00 - 7:30 pm. All are welcome to join us on Zoom with this link: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/87225414088?pwd=bmhG9febH5qOHsmAtCkSvHLU3RdBql.1 Any relationship grows in depth with good listening. This applies to our relationship with God. If we wish to deepen our relationship with God, it helps to set aside some time to listen, to be still, and to make space to be aware of God’s presence. One method for cultivating this stillness and space is through Centering Prayer. Centering Prayer is a prayer method rooted in the ancient Christian tradition of the Desert Fathers and Mothers who recognized the essential nature of silent, receptive prayer. In this silence, we allow ourselves to be receptive to God’s presence and action within us. Centering prayer is grounded in a relationship with God through Christ and is a practice to nurture that relationship. Centering Prayer is not meant to replace other kinds of prayer. Rather, it adds depth of meaning to all prayer and facilitates the movement from more active modes of prayer - verbal or active prayer - into a receptive prayer of resting in God. If practiced regularly, it can help us be more aware of God’s presence and action in our daily lives. If you have any questions, please contact Mary Jane Kistler or Roger Garthwaite. |
