INTENSIVE RETREAT Develop further the discipline of Centering Prayer and your relationship with God. There will be extended periods of Centering Prayer, dialogue sessions, and shared Lectio Divina. Silence. Prerequisite: Introduction to Centering Prayer. 10-DAY INTENSIVE AND POST INTENSIVE The 10-Day Intensive is an in-depth experience in contemplative living and spirituality. The purpose of the retreat is to assist the participants in entering into a more intimate relationship with God and self. This is facilitated through the cultivation of a deep level of interior silence in a nurturing, supportive environment that combines both solitude and community. The Post Intensive is a next step into a profound silence and stillness in order to facilitate a more intimate union with God. The 10-Day Intensive is a prerequisite for the Post Intensive. FORMATION FOR CONTEMPLATIVE OUTREACH SERVICE. The purpose of the course is to help participants move towards greater clarity in their understanding of the essence of the Centering Prayer method. It is designed to provide practice in interiorizing and communicating the essential elements of the Centering Prayer method and thus being able to share it appropriately with others. Prerequisites are attendance at an 8-Day or a 10-Day Intensive Retreat and the daily practice of Centering Prayer. |
