Guided Prayer

These sessions offer an opportunity to pause for 30 minutes in the day, dip into some quiet and find space to reflect. We alternate between:

A Guided Examen – a practice which helps us to reflect on how and where we are experiencing God in our everyday lives.

A Guided Lectio Divina – an ancient monastic prayer form, praying with a piece of scripture or a poem.
