Deepening the Practice
April 27-29, 2012
Facilitators:
Susan Turpin & Janice Boyd
Contemplative Outreach of Sacramento/Stockton Areas (COSSA) is joining with Mercy Center Auburn for a silent weekend retreat. The extended time of this weekend retreat will allow for a deeper journey into the healing silence of God. As we have been doing on the three previous days of silence, we will practice multiple periods of centering prayer woven throughout the weekend. We will engage selected videotaped teachings as they relate to our prayer and daily lives. We will also have personal quiet time for resting, walking the grounds at Mercy Center, reading or personal journaling.
It is recommended that participants have an established practice of centering prayer before coming to the retreat. There will be a review of the method of centering prayer, but no specific instruction will be offered at this retreat.
FULL RETREAT: Friday; check-in from 3:00 to 6:00pm; dinner at 6:15pm; ends Sunday, after lunch at 12:00 noon.
COST: $185 Residence ($75 non-refundable deposit)
