Father Kareem Smith urged the people in the pews, “Praise the Lord, Church, everybody!” And he was greeted with a loud round of applause as he began his homily Feb. 6 during the annual Black History Month Mass at St. Patrick’s Cathedral. Cardinal Dolan served as principal celebrant.
Geared toward young adults, this webinar, presented by Colleen Thomas, explores Contemplative Life, which encompasses a network of individuals and small faith communities committed to living the contemplative dimension of the Gospel. The common desire for Divine transformation, primarily expressed through a commitment to a daily Centering Prayer practice, unites our international, interdenominational community.
