Join our Chapel Centering Prayer Meditation Group
Tuesdays at 9 a.m. in Upper Room of Narthex/Chapel Entrance
For God alone my soul waits in silence; from God comes my salvation. God alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress; I shall never be shaken.
PSALM 62:1-2
​
Since the time of the Desert Fathers in the third and fourth centuries, Christians have practiced meditation as a way of experiencing and responding to God's presence in their daily lives.

Are you looking for a way to explore or deepen your relationship with God?
Centering Prayer is based on the wisdom saying of Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount:
“…But 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
"Centering prayer is both a relationship with God and a discipline to deepen that relationship. It requires from us only the intention to grow closer to God and its practice. Centering Prayer is a movement of Divine Love designed to renew the Christian contemplative tradition. It consists of consenting to God's presence and action within. As the inner room begins to expand its walls beyond the twice-daily practice of Centering Prayer, the Holy Spirit takes over our life more and more, and we begin to accept ourselves just as we are... God as God is... and all reality as it is.
It is also inspired by writings of major contributors to the Christian contemplative heritage
including John Cassian, the anonymous author of The Cloud of Unknowing, Francis de Sales,
Teresa of Ávila, John of the Cross, Thérèse of Lisieux, and Thomas Merton.
