Centering Prayer is a receptive method of silent prayer in which we experience
God's presence within us,
closer than breathing,                                                                            
closer than thinking,
                                                                                                    closer than consciousness itself.
This method of prayer is both a relationship with God                                  
                           and a discipline to foster that relationship.
 

Deep Calls to Deep

Centering Prayer

Lizard On Rock

An invitation to a childlike, life-long journey with other seekers.
Each one yearning to understand that love alone is real.  

That Love is always offered – never imposed!
Where there’s NOTHING to figure out – even though we relentlessly try ...
Nothing to Acquire!
It’s just a matter of becoming aware that we are God’s beloved.
It’s just a matter of becoming aware of what is within, who we really are in God.
