CONTINUING
The source of Centering Prayer is the Indwelling Trinity.  Its practice consists of responding to the call of the Holy Spirit to consent to the Divine presence and action within.
Theological Principle #4
 
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  

 

CONSIDERATION

CONWF sends gratitude to Barbara Rezmer for hosting the October session of the Living Flame teachings.  She planned and led the day which was held at the Church of  the Resurrection in Miramar Beach, FL. 



CONTEMPLATION

 

Gratitude bestows reverence, allowing us to encounter everyday epiphanies, those transcendent moments of awe that change    forever how we experience

 life and the world.   

                   John Milton (1608-1674)
