The Welcoming Prayer Practice: One Day Retreat
8:30 AM – 3:30 PM
Holy Mountain Franciscan Retreat Center
Cost: $50
Workshop Description: The Welcoming Prayer Practice is a way of letting go into the present moment and the ordinary routines of daily life. Everyone is welcome to this one-day retreat to reflect on the human condition and practice together to extend the good effects of Centering Prayer in every aspect of life. The Welcoming Prayer – consent on the go – rests on the assurance that the indwelling Spirit is inseparable from our bodies and offers us a way to make the connection at any time. Sr. Peggy Murphy is delighted to be coming back to the Holy Mountain to lead this retreat for Contemplative Outreach of Westchester.
This retreat is open to all regardless of experience. Guests will sit in meditation for two 25-minute sessions, morning and afternoon. You may bring bolsters, cushions, or mats.
