Christian Meditation

In today’s changing world over 500 hours of video are uploaded to YouTube every minute. American author, Anne Lamott says "Almost everything will work again if you unplug it for a few minutes, including you". We invite you to a time of silent prayer in our church that has been part of Manotick for over 120 years.

Christian Meditation is the practice of meditation in the contemplative tradition through simplicity, stillness, and silence: modelled on the practice of a Benedictine monk, Father John Main. It is through the practice of this silent prayer that we hope to deepen our contemplative life to truly reflect the presence of God in our daily living.

If you would like some peaceful, quiet and reflective time to "just be",  then please join us for meditation on Wednesday afternoons in the sanctuary at 4:30 pm, until approximately 5:10 pm.
