“Contemplative Prayer is the opening of mind and heart – our whole being – to God, the Ultimate Mystery, beyond thoughts, words, and emotions”
- Fr. Thomas Keating.

The pandemic has brought home the significance of quiet time being present with God.  With that in mind, I would like to see if there is interest in forming a Centering Prayer group here at Most Holy Trinity Parish.  

Essentially, Centering Prayer is sitting together in silence, opening ourselves up to God in the present moment…it’s that simple.  There are no other requirements or expectations beyond 20 minutes of silent contemplation, once a week as a group, and individually during the week as you are able.

Given the need for physical distancing, meeting in the evening at the Labyrinth would be ideal, starting sometime in mid to late September when it’s a little cooler.  Please contact me (Nancy) at 520-331-5961 if you are interested or would like to know more.
