Centering Prayer


Centering Prayer facilitates the movement from more active modes of prayer – verbal, mental, or affective prayer – into a receptive prayer of resting in God.  It emphasizes prayer as a personal relationship with God.  At the same time, it is a discipline to foster and serve this relationship by a regular, daily practice of prayer.  It is Trinitarian in its source, Christ-centered in its focus, and ecclesial in its effects; that is, it builds communities of faith.

Centering Prayer groups meet on Thursdays at 11:30 am and Tuesdays at 5:30 pm.
