Centering Prayer. This is a method of prayer, which prepares us to receive the gift of the presence of God, which traditionally is called contemplative prayer. It consists of responding to the Spirit of Christ by consenting to God’s presence and action within. It furthers the development of contemplative prayer by quieting our faculties to cooperate with the gift of the presence of God.

Explaining the Prayer of the Church (Divine Office). The official prayer of the Roman Catholic Church is known variously as Liturgy of the Hours, Divine Office. The roots of this prayer go all the way back to Jewish practices before the time of our Lord. This form of prayer was prayed by Jesus and his disciples. As such, it was carried over into the devotion of the early Christian Church and continues in an unbroken tradition down to our own day. This traditional way that the Church recites the psalms and canticles is explained.
