Weekly Meditation and Contemplative Prayer (Brooklyn, NY)
Wednesdays through May 22, 2024
7pm to 8pm ET
In Person Only
Each week, we will practice making conscious contact with God by showing up as we are, gathering all of our fears, anxieties, and life circumstances that need special care, and simply bringing them to God. On alternating weeks, we will offer guided meditation. Other weeks, we will simply create a silent and sacred space for self-guided contemplation.
Location:

Monasticism has always been a response to the deep human longing for God. From the desert fathers and mothers of Egypt and Palestine to the monasteries of Europe, it has shaped lives of prayer, simplicity, and service for centuries. But this course isn’t about the monasticism of the past—it’s about new expressions of monasticism emerging today, rooted in the same longing but responding to the unique challenges and possibilities of our time.
