Centering Prayer is a method of prayer that prepares us to receive the gift of God’s presence, traditionally called contemplative prayer. Centering Prayer facilitates the movement from more active prayer – verbal, mental, or affective prayer – into a receptive prayer of resting in God. Join ongoing sessions of Centering Prayer where you can learn the practice and experience it in a lay-led small group setting.
