BySt Mary Anne Admin

centering prayerApril 8, 2017 from 9:30-3:30PM; Cost $40.00 (includes lunch)

This introduction to Centering Prayer Workshop is for those new to Centering Prayer, as well as those who already practice this prayer. The practices of Centering Prayer allows us to open to the presence and action of God not only during the prayer period but also during the activities of every day life. It offers and approachable way of deepening the intimacy with God and increasing one’s capacity to live a fully Christian life. One long-term practitioner wishes that this practice had been available when she was a young person, so that her relationship with God could have deepened much earlier. We welcome teens and adults of all ages to this workshop. In addition to the 6-hour workshop on April 8th, there will be six optional weekly followup sessions at Resurrection Parish (3000 Videre Dr., Wilmington, DE 19808) on Thursday evenings at 7:00PM.

Presenters: Roseanne M. Havird, Contemplative Outreach Contact Person from SE Pennsylvania and Bev Roberts, Contemplative Outreach Contact Person from Delaware. To register: www.jesushousecenter.org.

Our St. Mary Anne’s Centering Prayer coordinator is Kate Burchess.
