SUMMARY:Quiet Mornings - In Person Session
DESCRIPTION:Quiet Mornings sessions are currently being held IN-PERSON on the 2nd Tuesday of each month. \n(It is also held virtually on the 1st and 3rd Tuesday. Every virtual session is held from 10:30 am to 12:00 noon.)\nPlease email Joanne at jmcahooneph3@gmail.com for the Zoom sessions invitation for Virtual sessions. \nQuiet mornings provide an opportunity for quiet – for reflection\, prayer\, listening\, presence – in common with others. Perhaps you’d like to carve out time\, but could use the support of a structure that is also flexible? Most of us could! And there is encouragement and strength in coming together in this way. You are welcome whenever matches your schedule/desire/need. \nEach gathering is bracketed by an opening and closing prayer. The quiet hour at its heart is not scripted or guided. Each one enters the quiet and utilizes or follows it as she/he desires to do so. Some opt to journal\, read\, walk; to engage in meditation; imaginative prayer or centering prayer; art or collage; or physical movement. The commitment to enter the quiet with some regularity as an ongoing practice is the point. By doing so in companionship with others\, we support each other’s journey just by willingly being present in God’s presence together\, and hoping good for each other. In our closing prayer\, we pray a blessing for each other. Please feel welcome! Guided by Joanne Cahoon. \nJoanne Cahoon\, D.Min. – spiritual director\, retreat leader\, coach – facilitates the Quiet Mornings.

SUMMARY:In-Person Centering Prayer Session
DESCRIPTION:Held IN PERSON on the: \n\n2nd and 5th Tuesdays of the month\, 1-2pm and\n4th Tuesday of the month\, 7-8pm.\n\nFor these in-person sessions\, registration is required in advance\, preferably by the Monday before each in-person session.  \n(Virtual Zoom sessions will be the 1st and 3rd Tuesdays of the month from 1-2pm. Register for Virtual Sessions by emailing facilitator Amy Sorensen Kulesa at kulesa.neshama@gmail.com.) \nCentering prayer is a form of Christian contemplative prayer in which one abides in the presence of God in interior silence. Centering Prayer emphasizes the indwelling presence of the Holy Trinity within and among us\, and our openness\, through receptive silence and restful surrender\, to God’s action and healing grace. For our one-hour sessions\, we will gather to pray together in silence\, attentive to the stillness within\, and reflect together on readings related to our prayer life. The sessions are relaxed and informal. You are invited to dress comfortably and use a meditation cushion if you would like. \nFacilitation for each Centering Prayer session will be led by an experienced member of the group. We follow a consistent format from week to week\, with variability each session in the reflective reading that is shared. Though sponsored by the Retreat Center\, Centering Prayer is a member-supported prayer community.

SUMMARY:Dreaming Your Dream of Peace
DESCRIPTION:“Dreaming Your Dream of Peace” is a unique interactive group participation program. The participants will consider questions about how each of them perceives “peace” from their own lives and the wider world. Then those responses will build into an “inventory” of peace building to refer to in their future peace making. The participants also will each form an “article” of peace\, using artwork materials that will be provided (pipe cleaners\, play dough\, stickers\, construction paper\, etc.). Then the program will conclude with a list of items that form a peace building/ peace making outlook/ approach. The program is conducted in small groups and involves much conversation. Guided by Chuck Michaels and Jaymie Litsey. \nChuck Michaels\, Esq. has been the volunteer coordinator for Pax Christi Baltimore since its founding more than 40 years ago. The group sponsors programs\, vigils\, prayer services\, workshops\, protests\, and other peace and justice activities in the Baltimore area.

He was Coordinator for Peace and Justice for the Archdiocese of Baltimore for four years (1982-1986)\, a member of the planning committee of the Annual Archdiocese Social Ministry Convocation (1983-2024)\, and former program manager for Beyond the Boundaries\, an Archdiocesan program advocating for affordable housing in the Baltimore region. He was also a member of the Institute of Islamic\, Christian and Jewish Studies (ICJS) Justice Leaders Fellowship program from 2023-2024. He is the Vice President of the St. Peter’s Cemetery Restoration Fund Board\, connected to Jonah House (a community founded by the late Phil Berrigan and Elizabeth McAlister). He is the author of No Greater Threat: America After September 11 and the Rise of a National Security State (Algora Publishing\, 2002).
