SUMMARY:Contemplative Practice Symposium
DESCRIPTION:The Contemplative Practice Symposium is an invitation to those who have an established practice and are ready to take the next step— to become companions and facilitators that help introduce and support the practice in parish communities. \nFacilitator formation is how the School for Contemplation & Discipleship tends the long life of this work: not just teaching individuals to pray\, but raising up the companions who will help to keep the practice healthy and growing throughout our Diocese for years to come. \nThis inaugural gathering offers three distinct paths of facilitator formation\, each rooted in its own tradition and taught by practitioners who have a deep well of experience and wisdom to share: Centering Prayer Facilitator Training\, Labyrinth Facilitator Training\, and Rooted in Stillness: Contemplative Practices for a Faithful Public Life Facilitator Training. \nClergy\, we invite you to nominate individuals or pairs from your congregation who already hold an established contemplative practice in one of these pathways and may be ready to take the next step into facilitation. \n\n\nLearn More Here

DESCRIPTION:Happening #89 is scheduled for November 20-22\, 2026 at Grace Point Camp & Retreat Center. Registration for participants and applications for team and observing rector are now open. Learn more below. For questions\, message our youth coordinators. \nWhat is Happening?\nHappening is a spiritual awakening and renewal weekend where high school students (Grades 9-12) have a face-to-face encounter with the love of Jesus through Christian community. This is done through a series of talks\, given by youth and adults about their experiences in faith and in life. \nThis weekend is honest and up-front. The weekend follows a format of talks\, each followed by small-group discussion and activities. Topics covered throughout the weekend include prayer\, faith\, Jesus\, and out individual calls to ministry in the world. Scattered between the talks and small group sessions are lots of fun songs and games\, and worship through liturgies that youth may or may not have experienced before. We come together for praise\, for reconciliation\, for healing. Of course\, there are a few fun surprises throughout the weekend! \nWho can attend?\nParticipants: Open to all high school students grades 9-12. First-time participants attend Happening as "Participants". Once you have been through Happening once\, you are eligible to serve on Happening Team. The cost for participants is $175 by October 1 or $215 after October 1. \nTeam: Happening Team is a dedicated group of high school students (Grade 9-12) who plan and lead Happening weekend. Adults are part of team as chaperones\, but the youth make it all "happen." The cost for team is $110 by October 1 or $150 after October 1.
