Wisdom Days: Contemplative Wisdom Practices
2025-05-17 09:00 - 13:00 | CA
Facilitated by Rev. Amber Sturgess & Heather Ruce
Contemplative wisdom practices have their origins in the ancient world and come down to us through various traditions such as The Rule of St. Benedict, the wisdom teachings of Jesus, and the Fourth Way work of G.I. Gurdjieff. Cynthia Bourgeault says that wisdom work “comes above ground at times when the planet is going through changes or when consciousness is about to take a major leap to a new place, a new level of understanding.”
We invite you to join us for the series of Wisdom Days. The contemplative wisdom practices will consist of Centering Prayer, Lectio Divina, wisdom teachings from Cynthia Bourgeault on video, conscious labor (physical work), and sacred dance taught by Heather Ruce.
Amber Sturgess is an Episcopal priest, Spiritual Director, and retreat leader.
Heather Ruce is a Wisdom Spiritual Director, teacher, and retreat leader.

Bible Study
2025-08-20 10:30 - 12:00 | CA
Bible Study meets every fourth Wednesday from 10:30am until noon in the Parish Library. We continue to read, study and ponder St. Luke’s Acts of the Apostles, which chronicles the birth and development of the church through the apostolic ministry by the power of the Holy Spirit. We have begun chapter 9 on the conversion of Paul. “Saul, Saul, why do you persecute Me?, says Jesus, identifying Himself with the Church as One Body. St Paul never forgot about this mysterious communion. All are welcome!

Centering Prayer
2025-08-21 17:30 - 19:30, 2025-08-28 17:30 - 19:30, 2025-09-04 17:30 - 19:30 | All Saints’ Church, 9th Ave & Dolores St, Carmel-by-the-Sea, CA, 93921, United States
Centering Prayer, a form of meditative prayer called the “prayer of the heart”, is rooted in the teachings of Jesus and of the Desert Fathers and Mothers of the early church. Through the practice of Centering Prayer we learn how to surrender to love, to abide in divine love, and to enjoy the numerous fruits of the practice: appreciation of silence and solitude, less susceptibility to stress, deeper reverence for the divine in and through nature, willingness and commitment to a life of reconciliation and peace, and longing for and realization of our full union with God, with humanity, and with all life forms on our planet. The practice of Centering Prayer encourages us to cultivate an open mind, heart, and will as we seek spiritual transformation in Christ.
