“Meditation opens the common ground between all traditions and cultures, religious, secular and scientific.  In a world that is growing increasingly aware of its need for stability and depth, Christian Meditation is speaking to more and more people.  This prayer of silence, found in Christian tradition from earliest times, leads us beyond words, thoughts and images to experience the presence of Christ within us.  Christian Meditation is central to the Christian experience and is available to all.”
Laurence Freeman, OSB.  Director of the World Community for Christian Meditation



The CCMC is part of the World Community for Christian Meditation.  Our mission is “to communicate and nurture meditation as passed on through the teaching of John Main in the Christian tradition, in the spirit of serving the unity of all.”



“Learning to meditate is not just a matter of mastering a technique.  It is much more learning to appreciate and respond directly to the depths of your own nature, not human nature in general, but your own nature in particular.”
