Centering Prayer Group

Centering prayer cultivates a disposition of interior silence intended to make room for God. It is a way of disposing of ourselves to receive the gift of contemplation, an encounter with God’s presence. As St. John Vianney said of his time in Eucharistic Adoration, “I look at him and he looks at me.” This contemplative gaze or time of being with God is at the heart of centering prayer. 
  
All contemplative prayer is a way of being with God more intimately and seeking union with God. Centering prayer in particular is an aid to cultivating the interior disposition requisite for such a relationship. In centering prayer, we make space for God and then invite God into that space.

Holy Infant has a Centering Prayer Group with a long history. Since the pandemic, the Centering Prayer Group has continued to meet weekly via Zoom on Tuesdays 8:00-9:00 am. The meeting includes an opening reflection, 20 minutes of silent meditation, Lectio reading, and reflection on the Sunday Gospel and concludes with intercessory prayer. 

If you would like to experience group centering prayer, contact Susan Modrak or Lynn Sale  for the Zoom link.
