Contemplative Prayer Training

The one-year contemplative training offers an extended opportunity for guidance and training, both on-site and while you are at home. It is a great way to establish a vital practice of contemplative prayer in the midst of your daily routine, to deepen your prayer life over a full year, and to inaugurate a life-long relationship with Cloud-Bearing Mountain Christian Retreat and Training Center. The training includes:

Introductory weekend retreat at Cloud-Bearing Mountain
A schedule of readings and short reflections personalized to your specific needs
Regular phone consultations throughout the year
Reflections connecting the various seasons and celebrations of the Church’s liturgical year with contemplative practice
A 3-day or longer Silent Prayer Retreat at Cloud-Bearing Mountain
