Welcome

Be Still… exploring silent prayer in the Christian Tradition

Be Still, and know that I am God (Psalm 46). 

When you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you (Matthew 6 vs 6).

A very warm welcome to Be Still, the Chichester Contemplative Prayer Group based in the Cathedral City of Chichester, UK. We provide opportunities in this busy world to stop and sit in peace with others, and with God. 

We are an ecumenical group, and we welcome people from all faiths and none. We meet twice a month for readings and for quiet, meditative prayer.

Next meetings are on 5th December and 19th December 

We also organise study days.  

The next is on 27th January:

'The Life and works of Evelyn Underhill' with Father Earl Collins

Evelyn Underhill is one of the most important Anglican theologians there has ever been.  Her book 'Mysticism', first published in 1911, transformed the understanding of silent prayer.

In returning and rest you shall be saved; in quietness and trust shall be your strength (Isaiah 30 vs 15)
