This is a quarterly event - second Saturday of every third month (dates following). Contemplative Outreach of Madison is inviting you to a scheduled ZOOM meeting or in-person (LIVE) Silent Saturday.

 

This year we will be trying a hybrid format so people can join in person (as above) or by Zoom (contingent on the COVID conditions at the time of the event).

 

We will begin at 10:00 AM Central Time. We will be having two 20-minute periods of prayer, although this could change later in the year if we meet in person.

Quarterly Schedule for 2023

April 12

July 12

October 11

Offered In-person or by Zoom

10AM Central Time

 

We will be returning to our pre-pandemic practice of having

three 20-minute periods of prayer. 

You are welcome to join us for one, two or all three. Between the sits we will be having a short meditative walk for those meeting in person at the church. If you are joining by Zoom, we encourage you to do whatever prayerful silent act that feels right to you between the prayer periods. 

 

We hope you can come join us for this communal practice of a method of prayer that has roots all the way back to the Desert Fathers and Mothers of early Christian monasticism.
