For all people who are interested in listening to and relying on God, while waiting for God’s leading us through the ups and downs of daily living. We will form an interactive group of deeper wisdom seekers during these unprecedented times, holding one another in prayer, as we share the insights and questions that have surfaced for each of us between and during our monthly gatherings.

Coming together in prayerful silence and sharing in contemplative conversation, we will listen to others and will be listened to during the group spiritual direction process. These two and a half hours will potentially orient our own need for God’s grace and give us the nourishment to be sustained as we journey together.

In every moment,

In every event of your life

Wisdom

is whispering to you

Exactly what you need to hear and know.

Who can ever explain this miracle?

It simply is.

Listen and you will discover it

Every passing moment.

Listen and your whole life will become a conversation

In thought and act between you and

Wisdom,

Directly,

Wordlessly,

Now,

And always.

---Rumi in Light Upon Light

As a point of reflection, we will use the (friendsofsilence.net) monthly newsletter, along with our own journal writings and contemplative practices to share with others.

The Friends of Silence newsletter can be subscribed to with a free will annual donation. It is available either through email or by regular mail.
