At Saint Stephen’s we’re blessed to have an amazing leader in Jamie Massa, who leads workshops on the mystics and teaches centering prayer. Jamie offers the following to all who are interested.

Wednesday Centering Prayer Group

Meeting from 7:55 am – 8:45 am every Wednesday.

We are a small and friendly group that gathers for prayer, centering prayer and lectio Divina (reflecting on a passage from scripture or other sacred sources) and sharing on how this passage might be touching our lives. If you’re interested, email Jamie and she’ll send you the zoom link. 

Monday Evening Centering Prayer Group

An ongoing Monday evening zoom group that meets from 5:30 – 6:15 pm.

We will go over the basics of centering prayer and help folks to get started. Use this link to join via zoom.

Monday Morning Contemplative Study of Thomas Merton

On Monday, January 13th, we are starting a new in-person contemplative study of Thomas Merton from 8:15 am – 9:15 am.  We will start each Merton session with a 15 minute contemplative practice – breathing, chanting, silence, lectio divina & more.  We will use excerpts  from Thomas Merton’s books. In addition, we will use the book Praying with Thomas Merton by Wayne Simsic.

The group will meet at Jamie’s condo. Contact Jamie for directions.
