Welcome to the Centering Prayer at St Pius X, South Yarmouth.

When you pray, go into your chamber and bolt
the door, and there pray to your Father in secret.
and your Father in secret will reward you. John 6:6

This Gospel passage makes unmistakable the need
for all of us to experience silence and solitude in
our lives if we are to pray well, if we are to grow.
Centering Prayer is a practice which helps us to
gain a deeper understanding of ourselves and leads
us to a deepening relationship with God and one another.

The Centering Prayer group meets from 7:15 to
9:00 pm on Thursday evenings in the Parish Library
in the Religious Education Building.
We invite you to join us in 20 minutes of meditation followed by a discussion of spiritual books by authors such as Thomas Keating, Henri Nouwen, and Basil Pennington. Our group is associated with Contemplative Outreach of New England and we have the benefit of joining together for Centering Prayer retreats.

Oh God, we ask you, teach us how to live our ordinary lives with extraordinary love.
