As Thomas Merton says, “Meditation has no point unless it is rooted in life … it is precisely the function of mediation to bring us into awareness and receptivity.”

Mary Lapham, M.Ed. will facilitate the workshop. She is coordinator of Minnesota Contemplative Outreach, a member of the Contemplative Outreach Welcoming Prayer Service and speaker with the Twelve Step Spirituality Team.
