Centering Prayer
Centering prayer creates the space of openness and receptivity for God's action through
listening. “Shela", the Aramaic word Jesus used for "prayer" means “to listen to.” The discipline of listening to God awakens our awareness of God’s presence in us; it leads to interior resurrection by diminishing our false self. Our true self emerges and simple acts of service to the community that flow from our basic core of goodness bear the fruits of the Holy Spirit. We learn to be attentive to the present moment: the moment of God’s presence. In silence, centering prayer becomes a universal prayer for the whole human family. Join us on Wednesdays from 7:30 – 8:30 p.m. in the Ray Manning Center, Apartment 101. Call for entry instructions.
