Contemplative Enrichment Day

Saturday, February 19, 2022
9:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. (ET)
Fr. Michael K. Holleran

Fr. Thomas Keating considered Bernadette's book, The Experience of No-Self, to be "one of the best...since St. John of the Cross. An amazing book, it clarifies the higher regions of the spiritual path." Combining prodigious intelligence and psychological acumen with her own astonishing mystical journey, she boldly plunges into territory usually left unexplored. Hers is buried treasure indeed: daunting, liberating and exhilarating! Come and discover.

This program will be offered both in-person and online via Zoom. Information on how to access the program on Zoom will be sent to participants in advance.

This program will include a morning and an afternoon session of Centering Prayer.

Offering: $65 (includes lunch)
