Invite Me To Speak

Invite Rich to Speak to Your Group

Help your group go deeper into silence, prayer, and the presence of God.

Do you lead a Centering Prayer group, contemplative community, church group, or book study?

I would be honored to join your group as a guest speaker.

What Your Group Will Experience

During our time together, your group will be invited to:

• Understand Centering Prayer more clearly
• Experience a guided time of silence
• Ask questions in a relaxed setting
• Learn practical ways to deepen their practice
• Feel encouraged in their relationship with God

This is not just a talk.

It is a quiet, practical, encouraging space to listen for God together.

Possible Topics

I can share on:

• Centering Prayer and the contemplative journey
• Sitting with God and discovering your true self
• How silence helps us experience peace, clarity, and direction
• How to begin or deepen a daily practice
• Insights from my book Sitting with God

We can also shape the session around what would serve your group best.
