Centering Prayer Extended Retreats

Centering Prayer is a gentle, silent method of consenting to God’s presence and healing action within us. Based on rich Christian contemplative heritage, Centering Prayer offers us a way to be open to God. By taking time to “rest in God” each day, we open our awareness to the gift of God’s presence.

Mercy Center offers 9-day and 10-day Centering Prayer Retreats led by an experienced Contemplative Outreach team.

Mercy Center hosts three Intensive Centering Prayer retreats each year. These retreats are typically offered in the Spring (March), Summer (June), and Fall (October).
