 Let Love Lead
 Creating Contemplative Communities by
Listening in Stillness and Serving in Joy
 
 
 Listening in Stillness

Cultivating a contemplative presence for God
involves daily practice of spiritual disciplines in solitude.
This, for us, is the inward journey. 
Because the journey cannot be completed alone,
we practice with a community of supportive friends. Together we seek to live a consecrated life:
practicing oneness with God in Solitude and in Community.
 

              Serving in Joy!          

          

Presence for God brings us into God's heart for the world.
The result is action-aresponse of serving. This for us is the outward journey.

We serve through our chosen vocations and through shared missions.


 

Our newest form of contemplative service is called

 HEARTFULNESS IN HEATHCARE.

Program Includes:

Centering Prayer

Lovingkindness Meditation

Body Prayer/Healing Touch 101
