Online Class
Centering Prayer and
the Spiritual Journey
If you want to make Centering Prayer a daily practice, this five-week basic course will give you a solid foundation. Each week, you will view a video-recorded talk by Fr. Thomas Keating on the prayer practice and how the prayer deepens your relationship with the divine indwelling. This powerful prayer practice is not just something you do, it does something to you, too. Your weekly online meetings with fellow seekers and experienced facilitators will break open the prayer and reveal a path to your true self. This is the beginning of a transformation of your consciousness.
If you are new to the Centering Prayer method, we recommend taking the free Introduction to Centering Prayer Workshop that precedes this class. However, if you are unable to attend the Workshop, you may still register for this course as the class material includes a video on the prayer method.
The course will cover:
Bonus Prayer Practices: The Active Prayer and Lectio Divina

Free Bonus Opportunity!
If you register for this class or the Introduction to Centering Prayer Workshop, you will receive an invitation to meet the class facilitators and practice Centering Prayer together a week before this class begins. Ask questions, meet others on the journey and enjoy deep silence together.

Thank you for such an amazing experience! I am so grateful for our wonderful facilitators who were so kind, gentle, and loving.
The class is very well organized, and the format is great. A lot of essential material is covered in 6 weeks, and it is well-balanced out. The facilitators are great!
I am very grateful for the opportunity to engage in this class. It has helped me gain more insight into my practise and has helped deepen my awareness of the importance of my relationship with my God, myself and others
