I am the newest board member of Journey Center Great Lakes. I am excited to be a part of the new season we are in after the merger of Journey Center of Chicago and Journey Center of Michigan.
No matter how or where you are in your life, or what you believe, there is room for you at JCGL. We offer much opportunity for space to invite spiritual connection and personal growth at a time when our world faces so much heartache and division.
My experience with silent prayer has been primarily through the practice of Centering Prayer through a Journey Center online group. After some time of praying weekly together, I admitted to the group that I am able to enter into silence more fully and longer because we are praying in silence together. I’m grateful to Journey Center Great Lakes for offering this space with other seekers to experience silent prayer.
JCGL’s calendar continues to include online Centering Prayer on Saturday mornings. Each session is led by an experienced spiritual director who will hold the silence for the group. So if you desire to enter into silent prayer in a community setting, I encourage you to come to this group and enter into true silence before God.
