Centering Prayer

Learn about the Discipline of Centering Prayer

This program is an opportunity to be introduced to or to renew your prayer practice and to be with God beyond concepts, words and images, listening with “the ear of the heart.” All are welcome to attend.

Introduction to Centering Prayer Program

Saturday, September 12, from 10:00 am - 3:00 pm
Join in for a day as we explore the practice of Centering Prayer as a means of drawing closer to God.

Centering Prayer is a method of silent prayer that presents ancient Christian wisdom teachings in an updated form. It is not meant to replace other kinds of prayer; rather it casts a new light and depth of meaning on them. It is at the same time a relationship with God and a discipline to foster that relationship. This method of prayer is a movement beyond conversation with Christ to communion with him. The focus of Centering Prayer is the deepening of our relationship with the living Christ.

Workshop Fee: $50, includes lunch
Presenter: Rev. Dr. Deborah Conner, Coordinator, Contemplative Outreach of Piedmont NC (COPNC)
