Description
“God’s first word is silence.” -Thomas Keating
Centering Prayer is a method of silent prayer that prepares us to receive the gift of contemplative prayer, prayer in which we experience God's presence within us, closer than breathing, closer than thinking, closer than consciousness itself. This method of prayer is both a relationship with God and a discipline to foster that relationship. Centering Prayer is not meant to replace other kinds of prayer; rather it casts a new light and depth of meaning on them. Centering Prayer is an ancient method of Christian prayer adapted for modern times by Fathers Thomas Keating, William Meninger and Basil Pennington.
The Centering Prayer application will support your daily prayer practice commitment. Beautiful and peaceful, the app includes an adjustable timer, as well as opening and closing prayer options that you may read before and after your silent prayer time. An assortment of sounds and backgrounds allow you to choose the type of environment you want to create for your prayer time. Brief instructions for learning Centering Prayer are also included.
It is recommended you practice being in relationship with God through Centering Prayer twice a day for 20 minutes to begin with

Straight forward meditation/Centering Prayer app. Perfect for personal practice.
★★★★★Paul Maher· May 24, 2026
Suggestions for opening and closing prayers are very helpful as are the chimes at the beginning and end of my prayer period.
★★★★★Carol Pearson· Feb 8, 2026
Love this app. Only suggestion would be a choice for a minute or two of silence, to settle, before the 1st gong rings.
★★★★★Matthew Aronson· Feb 21, 2026
We use this for group Contemplative Prayer monthly. It is easy to use & has a nice variety of resources for opening & closing prayer. One suggestion would be to have the timer start with the beginning gong, instead of having to push "next", which cuts off the sound.
