Centering Prayer moves us beyond conversation with Christ to communion with him. In the silence we are invited to 'be still and know that I am God.'

Pastor Robert Abarno, a member of Saint Luke, has been guiding people who are interested in learning about centering prayer for some years, and hosts Thursday evening gatherings on Zoom at Saint Luke Lutheran Church. Centering Prayer meets from 7:30 - 8:30 pm Thursday evenings. All invited!

A relevant book is David Frenette's "The Path of Centering Prayer" (2012)
