A Virtual 30-min Program each Monday of Advent
Advent Centering Prayer: Restore Our Hope
Centering Prayer continues through Advent with the theme, Restore Our Hope. Our 30 minutes together on Mondays in December will take a break from the teachings of Father Thomas Keating. Instead, we will gather around a centering song on Weeks 1 and 3 and a guided meditation on Weeks 2 and 4. The song/meditation time will be followed by our normal practice of 20 minutes in communal centering prayer.
Whether you’re one of our regulars, yearning for something to fill your soul during this dark season, curious about any group that savors a good long chunk of quiet time together, or any combination of the above, please join us this Advent season for a special time of centering our prayers in the One who is already here … and who is also always on the way.
Your Restore Our Hope facilitator is Sheri Brown.
