Centering Prayer is a method of silent prayer that prepares us to receive the gift of contemplative prayer. Lectio Divina, literally meaning "divine reading," is an ancient practice of praying the scriptures. Come and learn more about these ancient forms of prayer.

Join us for a video by Bishop Robert Barron. Considered by the Catholic Faith to be “the source and summit” of its identity and mission, the Eucharist is the central practice of the Church’s culture. Bishop Barron describes all the parts of the Mass, and shows how the Sacred Liturgy embodies the whole of the Faith in diverse places as Jerusalem, Rome, Chicago, Orvieto, Mexico City.

Another form of prayer to consider during our Year of Prayer is Charismatic Prayer. Parishioner and Theology teacher Jaime Meyer will explain the Catholic Charismatic Renewal and how the Baptism in the Holy Spirit has enriched her life and prayer since 1969. Jaime's sister, Patti Gallagher Mansfield, was present at the inception of this movement/current of grace at Duquesne University in Pittsburgh, PA in 1967 and author of the book As By A New Pentecost. Included in Jaime's presentation will be an explanation of 'praying in tongues', an often misunderstood gift of the Holy Spirit. This will be an explanation of this form of prayer not an actual experience.

Taizé (tie-zāy) is a simple meditative prayer service in a setting of soft candlelight that fosters communion with God. Christ is the center of Taizé reflection and the candlelight signifies that Jesus Christ has conquered the darkness of death and sin. It is through Christ’s sacrifice that an offer of new life is given. Through beautiful music, elegant chants, thoughtful scriptures and times of private prayer in silence, participants are invited to stillness and to listen for and to the voice of God.
