Come rest in the stillness of prayer, with Bill McElroy and JoAnne McElroy and other contemplative

companions, away from the busyness of daily life, and allow the mind, body, and spirit to surrender to God’s presence and action within.

The Intensive Retreat provides an opportunity to deepen the practice of Centering Prayer in an atmosphere of profound silence and community support. There are up to six 30-minute Centering Prayer periods daily. This prayer is supported with viewing a selection of the Spiritual Journey video series by Fr. Thomas Keating. Soul friending with the retreat guides can be scheduled.

The Post-Intensive Retreat provides an opportunity to deepen the practice of Centering Prayer and Lectio Divina in an atmosphere of profound silence and community support. There are up to seven 30-minute periods of Centering Prayer daily.

Prerequisite: Previous participation in an Intensive Retreat.
