Meditation & Prayer Groups

Early Morning Meditation and Prayer

Prayer is like a portable Sabbath, when we close our eyes for just a moment and let the mind rest in the heart. — Wayne Muller

Practicing Christian Meditation

To practice meditation is to open ourselves to the endlessly reassuring realization that our very being and the very being of everyone and everything around us is the generosity of God. For God is creating us in the present moment, loving us into being, such that our very presence in the present moment is the manifested presence of God.  We meditate that we might awaken to this unitive mystery, not just in meditation, but in every moment of our lives. –
 James Finley

No pre-registration is required for morning meditation and prayer. The above groups meet in the Meditation Room at Seton Cove.  Our Meditation Room is located in the small building behind our main building. This is easily accessible by passing through the gate by our main building front door and following the sidewalk around to the back building.

The Seton Cove offers these prayer and meditation groups as a service to the community. Donations are welcomed.
