"Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with God as we understood God, praying only for knowledge of God's will for us and the power to carry that out." 11th Step of AA

We are people in 12 step recovery who use Centering Prayer as our 11th Step practice, and we offer to provide Introductions to Centering Prayer to small groups and retreats. Anyone in a 12-Step program wishing to be a presenter of the Intro to Centering Prayer, can also contact us to find out about the requirements.

11th Step Centering Prayer Groups:

These weekly meetings intended to support individuals working their 11th Step through the use of centering prayer. People from all 12 step groups are welcome. An established centering prayer practice is NOT a pre-requisite, and practitioners of other meditation forms are welcome. Anonymity will be honored as we sit, study, and share together. Each meeting incorporates a 20-minute period of silent prayer, followed by a group study of a reading, DVD, or CD of relevant work such as Thomas Keating's Divine Therapy & Addiction or Richard Rohr's Breathing Under Water. We share our experience, strength and hope in relation to the study topic and our own unfolding lives.

11th Step Meetings:

These weekly meetings are different from 11th Step Centering Prayer Groups.  These are regular 12-Step Meetings (AA, Alanon, OA, NA, etc.) following the AA traditions. They include a 20-minute period of meditation but no mention of any specific type of meditation and usually use only 12-Step literature. The remainder of the meeting usually includes a speaker lead, then open discussion.
