What We Do

We are a hub for contemplative prayer, practice, and living. Join us for a workshop, retreat, worship service, silent prayer sit, spiritual direction, class, or any of our small groups. Groups and classes include lectio divina, bible study, tai chi, yoga, centering prayer, and contemplative conversations. We frequently offer workshops and retreat days that teach centering prayer, contemplative prayer, the welcoming prayer, the enneagram, and other contemplative spiritual disciplines. At Contemplate we are deeply spiritual and less religious.

We also aim to be a resource for Church leaders as they carry out their ministries in our community. It is our hope to be a place where minsters and religious leaders can gather, have discussion, attend workshops, and be nourished through worship.

Learn more about our programs and activities below and be sure to check out our event calendar.

It also helps us to engage our whole selves in our spiritual life.  The practice may draw on the yogic tradition to prepare...
