Lectio Divina Centering Prayer Workshop
With Tom Ward
June 4, 2027
Centering Prayer & Lectio Divina with Rev. Tom Ward
Join Rev. Tom Ward for a contemplative workshop exploring honored practices of Christian prayer: Centering Prayer and Lectio Divina. Together we’ll learn how silence and sacred reading can open space for deeper communion with God.
Participants will be guided through the practice of resting in God’s presence through Centering Prayer, and will experience Lectio Divina as a way of engaging Scripture — reading, reflecting, responding, and resting in the Word.
Whether you are new to contemplative prayer or looking to deepen an established practice, this workshop offers a welcoming space to slow down, listen, and encounter the sacred. All are welcome; no prior experience necessary.
This is a one day workshop 9am-3pm central time. Lunch is included. Contact our Reservations Team if you need to make a lodging reservation, Reservations@stmaryssewanee.org.
