    ES – The Welcoming Prayer October 28th 2026

    How do we bring the consent we practice in Centering Prayer into the unfolding circumstances of everyday life?

    Join Jim McElroy, a gifted and engaging contemplative teacher, as he introduces the Welcoming Prayer—a practice that invites us to recognize and consent to God's presence and action in the midst of our emotions, relationships, and daily challenges.

    Through Jim's insightful teaching and practical guidance, discover how even difficult and uncomfortable experiences can become opportunities for greater freedom, compassion, and openness to God's transforming love.

  • Soul Trekkers Nature Walk

    In Backpacking with the Saints, Belden Lane invites us to discover the natural world as a teacher of attentiveness, wonder, and spiritual awakening.

    Join us for an autumn afternoon of Centering Prayer, companionship, and discovery as we walk with ISA Certified Arborist Colleen Baum. With more than 20 years of experience and a remarkable gift for teaching, Colleen will help us see the trees and changing landscape with fresh eyes—revealing the fascinating relationships, quiet wisdom, and beauty of the natural world.

    Come ready to learn, notice, and be surprised by what nature has to teach us.
