Because we live in a busy and chaotic world, many of us are intimidated and perhaps even frightened by silence, but Fr. Richard Rohr assures us that “When we connect with silence as a living, primordial presence, we can then see all other things—and experience them deeply—inside that container. Silence is not just an absence, but a primal presence. Silence surrounds every ‘I know’ with a humble and patient ‘I don’t know.’ It protects the autonomy and dignity of events, persons, animals, and all created things…. Outer silence means very little if there is not a deeper inner silence. Everything else appears much clearer when it appears or emerges out of silence. Without silence, we do not really experience our experiences. We are here, but not in the depth of here. We have many experiences, but they do not have the power to change us, awaken us, or give us the joy and peace that the world cannot give.”

Most of us have been trained to avoid silence (and therefore God’s presence and our own being) by filling every waking moment with noise and distraction. Seek out an opportunity today to simply rest in silence. 

Church of the Holy Apostles hosts a centering prayer group meeting on Mondays at 3:30 pm that is open to all. We are one of ten Episcopal churches throughout the state that meets regularly. Come join us!
