Centering Prayer

Centering Prayer is a form of quiet Christian meditation practiced individually and in groups. SPR sponsors centering prayer sessions each week in the Chapel. All are welcomed. Scheduled sessions are:

  • Tuesday: 8:00 AM
  • Thursday: 8:00 AM

The Chapel is entered through the parking lot entrance on the east side of the church.

We sit in a circle around a candle while a CD player measures a twenty-minute period of silence. At the end of the silence, gentle music recalls us to the group. It is our custom to then share intercessory prayers and perhaps a short devotion appropriate to the time of day.

If you'd like to know more about the practice of centering prayer, visit the website of the group that brought it to SPR through their training: the Center for Contemplative Outreach.
