About this retreat
Join Sr. Ruth Ann and Beth for our new Centering Prayer Series, offered every other month. This ongoing retreat invites you to broaden and deepen your Centering Prayer practice in a warm and welcoming environment. Come once or come to them all—each session stands on its own while also supporting a growing contemplative rhythm.
​
Together, we’ll explore the foundations of Centering Prayer, a gentle yet profound method of silent prayer that opens the heart and mind to the presence of God.
