praying with scripture - gaining revelation and going deeper
 

praying the office

 

contemplative prayer
 

stages in prayer, dryness, recollection
 

praying with icons
 

the Jesus Prayer (the power of His name)

Testimonies from previous Prayer Schools


"I thoroughly enjoyed the Cor et Lumen Christi Prayer School. The sessions were well planned and the teaching was informative and entertaining. It has helped me put into words many of my own experiences and given me practical techniques to further develop a loving relationship with the Lord." - Bob Harold, Surrey (May 2001)

"The Prayer School exceeded my high expectations concerning the excellent content and information about prayer and how to pray."

"However, I was very surprised to experience such a change in myself by the end of the week. God touched me in a new and special way through the week, revealing His peace to me. This peace has stayed with me in that I find I am much more able to come into His presence when praying and can reconnect with Him during the day more easily. I feel more recollected and less distracted. I feel God has shown me how he wants me to pray at this time, which is what I wanted, so that my prayer would be more fruitful. I have really noticed a difference in my prayer and in my life." - Cathy Fava, Cumbria (July 2001)
