Prayer Groups

 

Supporting Centering Prayer Practitioners...

At the heart of the Chapter are the various Centering Prayer groups across the city. These groups meet periodically to pray together, engage in Lectio Divina (a contemplative method of reading the scriptures), watch some of the Spiritual Journey video tapes, discuss Centering Prayer, and discuss the Contemplative Life Program (of course, not all at the same meeting!).

A listing of the prayer groups we know of are below. If you'd like to have your prayer group added to the list, please let us know.
