DESCRIPTION:Wednesday\, August 20\, 2025  5:00 PM\nSunday\, August 24\, 2025  1:00 PM \n\n\n\nCentering Prayer is a simple method of prayer rooted in ancient Christian practice that opens us to the Divine Presence within. The practice of Centering Prayer and its spiritual\, historical and psychological basis is described in the works of Fr. Thomas Keating\, including Open Heart\, Open Mind. Centering Prayer deepens the 12-Step practice generally\, and the 11th Step specifically\, through daily immersion in prayer and meditation. This retreat is designed for people who participate in any 12-Step program\, or for those who support recovery and have the intention to improve their meditation practice and enlarge their spiritual life. St. Mary’s Sewanee is located on the beautiful southern peaks of the Cumberland Plateau in Sewanee TN on the “New Hope Bluff.” Comfortable\, quiet and private accommodations\, along with nourishing and healthy meals are provided. Hiking trails and an outdoor labyrinth are available. Rocking chairs line covered porches\, offering breathtaking views of the evening sunsets. \nScholarship assistance is available for those with financial need. Please contact Reservations for an application.\n\n\n\n\nThe 11th Step in the 12 Steps of Recovery states: “Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with God\, as we understood Him\, praying only for knowledge of His will for us and the power to carry that out.”\n\n\n\n\nThis retreat will explore the method of Centering Prayer as an 11th Step practice in the 12 Step way of life. \nRetreat leaders are commissioned  Presenters of Centering Prayer.   Centering Prayer  has been their  11th Step meditation practice for over 20 years.
