Centering Prayer
2025-10-21 16:00 - 17:00 | Off-site
Centering Prayer
Every Tuesday, beginning September 9th (except for holidays) | 4:00 – 5:30 pm | Pat’s Home* (very near the church)
*Address will be sent after registration*
If you are searching for a prayerful time of silence with the Holy Spirit…
If you desire to deepen your relationship with God…
If you want to rest in the presence of the Holy Spirit without the need for words…
Perhaps Center Prayer can offer you that silent, prayerful time, along with the method and discipline to build the desired relationship.
This method of silent prayer prepares us to receive the gift of contemplative prayer, prayer in which we experience God’s presence within us, closer than breathing, closer than thinking, closer than consciousness itself. This method of prayer is both a relationship with God and a discipline to foster that relationship.
Center prayer is not meant to replace other kinds of prayer, but rather adds to the meaning of all prayer. The source of Centering Prayer is the indwelling Trinity.
Pat Romanovich will lead the sessions. Pat holds a Masters Degree in Curriculum and Instruction from Cleveland State University and a Master Professional Catechist Certification from the Diocese of Cleveland.
For more information, contact Pat at 440.666.2939.

Our monthly Reconciliation generally occurs on the first Wednesday of the month in the Church from 4:30 pm – 6:00 pm. We have many priests during this time to hear individual confessions.

Jesus said to them again, “Peace be with you. As the Father has sent Me, even so I send you.” And when He had said this, He breathed on them, and said to them, “Receive the Holy Spirit. If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven; if you retain the sins of any, they are retained.”
–John 20:21-23
