“The desire to pray is itself a clear sign of the Lord’s presence…[and] the art of listening is at the heart of genuine prayer.” Great teachers of prayer in our tradition show us ways to open ourselves to God, to grow in our ability to listen and truly hear what God is trying to say. True dialogue with God takes years to cultivate.  Whether you are looking to start fresh or deepen your prayer life, you are invited to join us as we journey through the book Opening to God: A Guide to Prayer by Thomas H. Green, S.J. this fall. We will touch on prayer methods from St. Ignatius to St. Theresa of Avila, how to dispose ourselves to listen more deeply to God, and ways to discern what God is saying once we are able to stop talking and “have ears to hear.” These gatherings will be led by our parish Pastoral Associate, Marti Salas.
