Contemplative Prayer Retreat (Fr. Thomas Leitner, OSB)


“And I had an inkling that learning how to pray consists in learning how to be silent.” (Antoine de Saint Exupery). In contemplative prayer, we divest our minds of all thoughts and images in order to receive the pure and simple light of God directly into the summit of our souls. This retreat involves breath practice. It is for those who have begun the practice of non-conceptual prayer.

Friday, 7:30 p.m. to Sunday after Lunch

Cost:
$219.14 (Single)
