CENTERING PRAYER

Centering Prayer: A Six-Part Workshop

Centering Prayer is an ancient Christian practice dating back to at least the 14th Century that opens one up to the presence of God through the discipline of meditation. Through a daily period of stillness the practitioner offers to sit in silence and calm the busyness of their minds by returning over and over again to the Divine presence.

There are many physical, psychological, and emotional benefits achieved by any form of meditation but this course will not focus on these attributes. Instead, this course will center on the practice as a discipline that will draw us closer to God and the theological and scriptural basis of this Christian practice.

This course will be held on six Thursday evenings at 7:00 beginning January 24th. It is designed to lead the participant into the season of Lent. Two books will be required and the cost of the books and the course will be $40.00.
