Space to Pause, Reflect, and Connect
Centering Space offers a variety of events throughout the year designed to refresh the spirit, deepen reflection, and strengthen community. Our gatherings include retreats, prayer experiences, workshops, and opportunities for shared conversation and growth.
Each event provides a welcoming space to slow down, reconnect with your inner life, and be present to the movement of grace in everyday moments. We invite you to explore our calendar and find an experience that speaks to where you are on your journey.
All programs are at Centering Space unless otherwise noted.*
*Virtual programs are held solely on Zoom. Some programs are Virtual only while others are offered both In-person and Virtual.
*Hybrid programs blend our in-person and remote participants.
