Join us this year as we explore the theme of \u201cEngaged Contemplation.\u201d We began our year considering what contemplative action is from Fr. Adam Bucko\u2019s work and life.

 For our October-January Meetings we will be learning from the lives of the following 20th<\/sup> Century Mystics: Pedro Arrupe, Thich Nhat Hanh, Flannery O\u2019Connor and Pierre Teilhard de Chardin.  How did these live out their connection with the Divine in response to the events of their time and place in the world?

We will continue in February -April by examining teachings from Contemporary Contemplatives on deepening Centering Prayer and  discerning what our unique call to action might be, and end in May and June with further  work with the Welcoming Prayer<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
