This ministry evolved as the need arose to more deeply support those who had attached themselves to the spiritual work and challenges of our teachings and practices. This has become a community in support of those who desire an ongoing network of others who are seeking to live a Contemplative Life. We have developed a "rule of life" that we follow as a community. This includes the following topics:

1.  Personal Prayer Practice
2.  Pursuit of Wisdom
3.  Transformation through Awakening
4.  Healthy Living
5.  Annual Commitment
6.  Prayer for the Life and Ministry of the House of Prayer
7.  Giving
8.  Relationship to the Membership
9.  Mission and Service
 
House of PrayerThis is open to anyone who desires to enter into a deeper commitment, discernment of life, and a community of soul-friends committed to the House of Prayer and its vision and mission. For a full explanation of these commitments or to further inquire to joining the membership, please request a brochure from houseprayer@csbsju.edu.
