Facilitator: Barry Davis

Barry retired from corporate life and relocated from Texas to the NorCal foothills in 2009. Since then, he has actively pursued the spiritual dimension he first encountered at Princeton Theological Seminary in the 1970’s. 

 Barry’s Centering Prayer practice spans 20 years. His primary teachers include T Keating, R Rohr, C Bourgeault, J Finley, D Bisson, as well as 30 years of active participation in 12-Step recovery. He has facilitated the Wednesday morning prayer group since moving here several years ago.

Our weekly Centering Prayer sits often include related practices, such as Lectio Divina and Ignatian Imaginative Prayer. We also occasionally explore contemplative thought leaders, as well as relevant themes, such as the Aramaic Beatitudes. These practices open us to God’s active presence in our lives, which grounds us in living from a deeper reality as the world rapidly changes around us.
