Week of Guided Prayer

Would your church or group like to facilitate a week of seeking God individually and together?
Weeks of Guided Prayer, sometimes referred to as "a retreat in daily life", are like a retreat, except that you remain in your normal day to day routines, choosing to consistently spend a half hour in prayer each day through the week, and having the opportunity to talk with a spiritual director daily.
The week begins and ends with a Group contemplative worship experience including a guided meditation.

Contact us to find out more.

What is a... Quiet Day?

A day away from the usual hubbub of daily life, to allow a focus on, and listening to God. These are usually facilitated around a topic or theme and provide plenty of space for personal reflection and prayer.
