Centering Prayer Dual-Track Intensive Post-Intensive Retreat

January 5, 2020 @ 8:00 am - January 13, 2020 @ 5:00 pm

This retreat is an opportunity for practitioners of Centering Prayer to deepen their contemplative journey in the contemporary world. It is a week-long experience of integrating contemplation and action through silence, solitude and community.

The retreat offers two tracks. The Intensive Track is recommended for people who have completed the Introductory Workshop and who have a regular practice of Centering Prayer. The Post-Intensive Track is for those people who have previously made an Eight-Day Intensive Retreat. The Post-Intensive offers increased silence and additional periods of Centering Prayer. Both the Intensive and Post-Intensive Centering Prayer Retreat provide daily experiences of silence, solitude, walking, hiking, yoga, and spiritual companionship to foster an ever-deepening level of interior silence and awareness of the presence of God in everyday life.

Scholarships are available. For more information go to www.stmaryssewanee.org

The Rev. David Frazelle will lead this retreat. He started practicing Centering Prayer as an undergraduate at Sewanee in 1996. Ever since participating in his first Centering Prayer retreat in 1997, one of his chief joys has been sharing contemplative prayer through leading Centering Prayer groups, workshops, and retreats. David lives with his wife, two children, two dogs, seven chickens, and numerous flora and fauna in Chapel Hill, NC, and he serves as Vicar of St. Christopher’s Episcopal Church, Garner.
