Centering Prayer
spiritual
In the 1970s, drawing from The Cloud of Unknowing and other Chris an mys cal wri ngs,
three Trappist monks--William Meninger, Basil Pennington, and Thomas Kea ng--developed a simple method of silent
prayer. This method came to be known as Centering Prayer, referencing Thomas Merton's defini on of contempla on
as prayer "centered en rely on the presence of God." (You can learn more about Centering Prayer through
Contempla ve Outreach.)
Centering Prayer is simply si ng in silence, open to God's love and your love for God. This prayer is beyond thoughts,
emo ons, or sensa ons. Like being with a very close friend or lover, where words are not required, Centering Prayer
brings your rela onship with God to a level deeper than conversa on, to pure communion.
Because our minds are so a ached to thinking, Father Thomas Kea ng some mes suggests choosing a sacred word,
with one or two syllables, "as the symbol of your inten on to consent to God's presence and ac on within. [Then,]
si ng comfortably and with eyes closed, se le briefly, and silently introduce your sacred word. . . . When you become
aware of thoughts, return ever-so-gently to your sacred word. At the end of the prayer period, remain in silence with
eyes closed for a couple of minutes."
Two sessions of 20-30 minutes of Centering prayer is recommended each day, but if that is too much for you, begin
with five or ten minutes. Let go of all expecta ons or goals during this me. It is not about achieving anything, whether
emptying your mind or finding peace or achieving a spiritual experience. There is no way to succeed at Centering
Prayer, except to return again and again to love. Allow thoughts to come and go without latching onto them, without
judgment. "Ever-so-gently" bring your sacred word, the symbol of your inten on, back to mind and return to res ng in
Presence.

Kairos Ministry
We were few, but with God's help, we were mighty! Six
men entered the prison at Lake Correctional Institution
on Saturday, July 18th to continue the Kairos ministry
that started there more than 30 years ago. The event
was the 3-month Retreat occurring at the mid-point
between Kairos #65, held in April, and Kairos #66,
scheduled for September. In all 86 inmate/participants
spent the day in discussion, reflection and prayer. While
the retreat was a success - with an unprecedented turnout of 3 to 4 times the number previously experienced the low number of volunteers underscores the need for
additional men to serve in this ministry. If you are
interested in serving God through the incarcerated,
please consider joining this rewarding ministry.
Formation starts Monday, July 20th, at 6:00 PM in the St.
Andrew Parish Center. Please note: Kairos is an
international and ecumenical prison ministry, and the
Kairos Inside program is intended for male incarcerated
and male volunteers. For more details contact Michael
Varela at 407-497-2930 or [email protected].
