Sustaining a discipline of silence based prayer is not always easy.
This on line group offers several ways to support you in this:
- Meet regularly on line with others to share discoveries about the joys and struggles of your practice of silence.
- Ask questions about things that puzzle you,
- Bring sections of books, poems, websites or videos and podcasts - or anything else! - about silence that you have found helpful for your practice, to discuss with others.
- Learn with and from others as together we reflect, chat and ponder how our explorations of this practice impact on our engagement with silence as a spiritual discipline.
- Join in 20 minutes of silence together on line each time we meet.
These sessions will take place on line via zoom from 7.30-9pm
