CCE Contemplative Enrichment Day

Living the Questions with Rainer Maria Rilke
Led by Mark Burrows

In one of his Sonnets to Orpheus, Rilke invites us to “desire the change!” Transformation was one of his central themes. But how do we find the courage to do this? This retreat invites us to explore his invitation to “live the questions,” and indeed to “live everything” as the path toward that end. We’ll explore his invitation to live into “the Open,” and discover our lives as belonging to “the Whole.” Come to practice doing what Rilke called the “heart-work” of life.

This program will be offered both in-person and online via Zoom. Information on how to access the program on Zoom will be sent to participants in advance.

This program will include a morning and an afternoon session of Centering Prayer.
