Regular Offerings
Spiritual grounding for daily action
The practice of contemplation invites us to experience a deeper self, quieter, more open to the underlying connections all around us. We invite you to explore some of our contemplative practices as a regular part of your week, helping you stay present to the life of the Spirit, wherever you find yourself. We offer a wide range of opportunities, both in-person and online.
“Peace meets you at the garden gate…
At Bethany every leaf and tree, every stone and flower seems infused with the prayers of the faithful.”
