The practice of Centering Prayer is a sort of “boot camp” or initiation to meditation and/or contemplation. Centering Prayer is one of many approaches. It is the place where peace and quiet meet. Centering Prayer familiarizes us with God’s first language, which is silence. To hear the language of God, we must learn to be still and to rest in God. The allure of this relationship comes into being in the quiet. The intent is to be totally available to the divine source within.
Sister Beth Lynn, OSC facilitates the practice. Sister Beth has 40 years of experience in this prayer form. This modern movement in Christianity was initiated in 1970 by three Trappist monks, Fr. William Menninger, Fr. Basil Pennington, and Abbot Thomas Keating at St. Joseph Abbey in Spencer, MA.
