Silent Prayer Thursdays at ACP
Thursdays 18h-19h via Zoom
“Be still and know that I am God” (Psalm 46:10)
“We may think of prayer as thoughts or feelings expressed in words. But this is only one expression. In the Christian contemplative tradition, Contemplative Prayer is considered to be the pure gift of God. It is the opening of mind and heart – our whole being – to God the Ultimate Mystery, beyond thoughts, words, and emotions.” (Father Thomas Keating)
Join us for prayer in silence every Thursday evening. We will practice 25 minutes of praying together in stillness according to the method of Centering Prayer. This period is followed by the reading of a short sacred text according to the method of Lectio Divina. Afterwards, there will be an opportunity for sharing.
The prayer will be led by ACP staff member, Jörg Kaldewey.
