CONTINUING
The contemplative dimension of the Gospel manifests as an ever-deepening union with Christ and the practical caring for others that flows from this relationship. It reveals the deeper meaning of Christ's life and teaching. Theological Principle # 7
So that they may all be one; just as You, Father, are in me and I in you, may they also be one in us.
John 17: 21

Spiritual companioning can be said to be a contemplative form of spiritual direction. The essence of spiritual companioning is one of helping us towards unconditional love, genuine forgiveness, and a greater sense of responsibility in light of our gifts and calling in life. It is not counseling, nor giving advice, not fixing problems, not direction in the ordinary sense of the word.

COMMUNICATION
Christ Church Pensacola had its annual Parish Fair on Sunday, August 25, 2013. Various
ministries and small groups within the church had an opportunity to set up tables in the parish hall to encourage parishioners to become involved to deepen their relationships with God and each other and to serve the greater community. The three Centering Prayer groups at Christ Church set up a table with informational handouts, and volunteers were available from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. to answer questions about the practice.
