More than ever, we are all struggling with isolation, anxiety, and hopelessness. Join us for a six-week exploration of daily spiritual practices that can cultivate our conscious contact with God, providing us the inner resources we need to respond to this crisis. The co-founders of the Center for Spiritual Imagination will offer a brief history of contemplative spirituality, and then offer the basic building blocks of a daily 15-minute spiritual practice anyone can do anytime, anywhere.
To join us, click here or join on your Zoom app and enter Meeting ID 263 033 638 and Password 445381. Immediately following each talk, you are invited to stay for Compline (Night Prayer).

"We are all addicted to our own habitual way of doing anything, our own defenses, and, most especially, our patterned way of thinking, or how we process reality." - Fr. Richard Rohr
The Christian contemplative tradition offers a lifelong practice with the potential to transform our way of being in the world. In our new monastic community, we engage with an adapted version of the 12 Steps that is suitable for anyone who is addicted to their own way of thinking (in other words, everyone!) Our 12 Step contemplative practice is a means of ongoing conversion of life and community accountability.
This spring, we are delighted to offer this practice to the public. Join us for individual practices and step work combined with community connection that will take place over the course of five months.
Self-guided

Explore the foundational prayer method of our community that welcomes our whole being into relationship with God. Each session, we will focus on a different aspect of this method of prayer.
