The School for Contemplation & Discipleship is a living network of contemplative learning woven throughout our diocese. Through parish-based workshops, regional gatherings, retreats, and online resources, we create a tapestry of formation that meets people where they are while weaving them into a vibrant community of spiritual growth and discipleship—learning to follow Christ more deeply in daily life.

Lily & Sparrow is a journal for voices exploring how contemplative prayer and Christian discipleship entwine to deepen our encounter with God and the world. We invite essays, narratives, poetry, and art—from seekers and artists within and beyond our diocese—that witness how the practice of stillness in prayer shapes us and draws us closer to Christ.
