The Garden and the Mansions: Praying with Teresa of Avila.

With Sister Clare-Louise SLG

What can a 16th century Spanish mystic possibly have to say to us about prayer in the 21st century? Using her imagery of the garden and the mansions, this session will explore Teresa’s teaching on prayer and her relevance for us as we seek to pray for today’s church and world.

Sister Clare-Louise is a member of the Anglican Sisters of the Love of God, who has been influenced and encouraged by St Teresa and her friend St John of the Cross for more years than she cares to remember!

Sister Clare-Louise accompanies our Contemplative Fire community, sharing valuable wisdom from her own community and experience with us as we journey together.

Wisdom on the Ways are open events, available to Companions, Friends and anyone interested in the topic of the event or in sampling what Contemplative Fire has to offer. Typically we offer 3- 4 Wisdom on the Way sessions annually. The topic of each is determined by the presenter of the event (who is often someone from beyond our own community), enabling us to explore and deepen our spiritual journey. The event honours, and weaves in, the Contemplative Fire ethos, values and rhythm of life. These events are free, but if you’d like to make a donation to Contemplative Fire in gratitude for it, to enable us to keep offering these events freely, you can find our bank details here.

Contemplative Fire is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.
