Centering Prayer Introductory Workshop

You are invited to a
Centering Prayer Workshop
at St. John's Presbyterian Church
on Saturday, February 2, at 9:30 A.M.

This workshop will introduce you to a method which will prepare you to receive the gift of opening your mind and heart – your whole being – to God, the Ultimate Mystery. The Workshop will deal with consenting to God’s presence and action within; preparing you to cooperate with the gift of contemplative prayer; practicing the method; and dealing with distractions. Centering Prayer is drawn from the ancient prayer practices of the Christian contemplative heritage, especially the English spiritual classic, The Cloud of Unknowing, and taught by Contemplative Outreach, Ltd. The leader of the workshop, Mrs. Shirley Berger, is a certified presenter by Contemplative Outreach Ltd.

Centering Prayer is a
“wordless awareness
of our oneness with God.”
