The Association of

Contemplative Women

is a community of women, diverse in culture, religious tradition, and country of origin, yet united by the call to a contemplative response to the Spirit. Our goal is to foster and support the contemplative journey of members by offering opportunities for personal connection and communal enrichment.

“The call to contemplation is universal. People all over the world are hearing it, sending it, receiving it, yearning for “something more”, longing to go deeper, and looking for a new language with which to rearticulate ancient truths…Everyone is called to share in the grace of contemplative life. It is for people in all walks of life.”
