Centering Prayer
Tuesday 08 July 2025, 11:30am - 12:30pm

An opportunity to experience meditation in the Christian tradition, focusing on the presence of God within.

For more than 40 years, Centering Meditation (also known as Centering Prayer) has nurtured the faith life of Prayer Groups around the world by showing people how to respond to the presence and action of God within.

We recommend the form of Centering Meditation, as promoted by Fr Thomas Keating, an internationally renowned Trappist monk who has encouraged Centering Prayer Meditation Groups around the world. 

Numerous opportunities exist to learn to meditate with others.

Meditating in a group can help you deepen your practice. 

A number of Centering Prayer Groups meet around Melbourne.  For more locations click on the Resources Button.

For enquiries ring Ria Parlevliet on 0468476813.  All are welcome. Donation is appreciated.
