Advanced Patterns of Christian Prayer 147186

Friday, September 6, 2024 - Sunday, September 8, 2024
Location: Archabbey Guest House and Retreat Center
Session Faculty: Fr. Adrian Burke, OSB

Has your prayer life plateaued? Has prayer become dry and “boring” to you? This retreat will explore the contemplative dimensions of prayer coming out of the Christian tradition from as far back as the second century. Contemplative prayer has always been part of the Christian spiritual landscape, but many Christians today have lost a sense of its value and purpose. Having grown dissatisfied with their prayer life, they cease to pray at all. Stop missing out on the depth of intimacy to which God is calling you in Christ – come and explore what prayer is like at the deep end of the pool!
