SACRED SILENCE
 
An Immersion in Contemplative Practice
February 26-28, 2016

Winter’s invitation is to move downward and inward, to join the plants and hibernators in darkness, waiting, and unknowing.  This weekend retreat is an opportunity to follow this seasonal rhythm by entering deeply into sacred silence through the practice of Centering Prayer. While this will be our primary emphasis during the weekend, we will also experience:

·       Lectio Divina or “sacred reading” – an ancient monastic practice of listening to the Spirit speak to our hearts
                 through Scripture.

 ·       Chanting – no prior singing experience necessary.
 ·       Moving Prayer – gentle, natural movements & gestures that complement our sitting practice.
 ·       Eucharistic worship – all are welcome.

This is a wonderful opportunity to go deeply into silence and solitude within a community of support. People of all spiritual traditions (or none) are welcome. The only prerequisite is some prior experience with silent prayer or meditation.
