A CENTERING PRAYER GROUP meets on Wednesday, 6:15 – 7:00 P.M. in the Library, Centering Prayer is a practice of sitting in silence as a way to listen for and be aware of God’s presence. Over time, the practice trains the mind to consent to God’s presence and rest attention there. Pastor LaDonna will be facilitating the group. All are welcome to participate and no prior experience with this prayer form is necessary. We will learn and practice together. The group will meet each Wednesday through August 28.
