The Contemplative Heart of Unity: A Retreat into Oneness through Centering Prayer
In a world where division and disconnection often overshadow our shared humanity, the call to unity has never been more urgent.
The 4th Annual Online Centering Prayer Summit on January 25-26 offers a sacred space to move beyond personal peace to embrace a shared, universal connection with the Divine and all of creation. Guided by renowned contemplative teachers, including keynote speaker Cynthia Bourgeault, we’ll explore how contemplative prayer not only deepens our relationship with God but also weaves us closer to one another, illuminating our shared journey.
Through shared silence and wisdom teachings, we’ll uncover the Divine thread that connects us all, revealing the wholeness amidst the fragments.
