The Carmelite Nuns of Baltimore

Living a life of contemplative prayer

Vision

Christian Meditation

In December, 2018 we were blessed to have Fr. Laurence Freeman, OSB, here to give a talk about Christian Meditation. Fr. Laurence is a Benedictine monk and the spiritual guide and Director of The World Community for Christian Meditation, an ecumenical, contemplative community. As a result of his talk we began hosting a weekly Christian Meditation group. We begin by inviting participants to share “the state of their heart” or any intention they would like us to keep in our hearts. Then there is input about Christian Meditation with a tape by Fr. Laurence or John Main, followed by 25 minutes of meditation. The group meets on Mondays at 6 p.m. and is open to all.
