Centering Prayer Introductory Workshop
Saturday, September 13
8:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m. (EDT)
St. James Episcopal Church
8 Cornwall St. NW
Leesburg, VA
Hosted by Contemplative Outreach of Northern Virginia
Do you seek the still, quiet voice of God? The Centering Prayer Introductory Program will help us to understand the Indwelling Presence of God within each each of us and our intimate relationship with that Presence. The method of Centering Prayer will be presented. We will explore the benefits of Centering Prayer in ordinary life and experience two periods of Centering Prayer practice.
All are welcome to attend - whether as a beginner, or to refresh or inspire your practice!​
SECOND SATURDAY
A Morning of Centering Prayer and Reflection
Saturday, October 11
9-11 a.m. (EDT)
Via Zoom
Hosted by Contemplative Outreach of Northern Virginia
You are warmly invited to give yourself the gift of some quiet morning retreat time, joining with fellow Centering Prayer practitioners for some shared practice together using readings and sacred images (borrowed from a recent Contemplative Outreach "Word of the Week" ) offered to transition us into deeper silence. Our retreat will include time for reflection and journaling as well as sharing in community.
When you pray, go to your inner room, close the door, and pray to your Father in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you.
Matthew 6:6
