Guided Summer Retreat: Contemplative Prayer

A New Candlelight of Consciousness

Teacher and mystic, Cynthia Bourgeault, uses the above expression to describe the impact Contemplative Practice can have upon someone. Elsewhere she notes that any spiritual path that has transformation at its heart requires intentional silence. “Just do it!,” she tell us. During this week, Margaret Galiardi will both engage in contemplative practice and explore its capacity to bless us and drive us out with presence and power to fill the world with love and justice.
