Centering Prayer “Silent Saturdays” the first Saturday of every month.

“Silence is a great common denominator between people and also between us and God. 

God’s first language is silence. Everything else is a poor translation. It is by entering into silence that we are best able to hear God” Fr. Thomas Keating.

Please join us on the first Saturday of each month, 10:00 am to 12:00 pm in the Parish House. All are welcome.
