Centering Prayer is

based on ancient prayer traditions to foster a personal relationship with God.

It’s a method of silent meditation in which

we consent to God’s presence and action within us,

closer than breathing, closer than thinking, closer than consciousness itself.

 

All are welcome! We’d love for you to join us!
