Lectio Divina is the slow, repetitive reading of a sacred text that leads one to the ultimate step of resting in God. It is not Scripture study, nor is it spiritual reading. It is an invitation to take a long, loving look at the Divine.

Being with Scripture in a prayerful manner includes: Reading (Lectio); Meditating (Meditatio); Praying (Oratio); and Contemplating (Contemplatio). Using texts from Sacred Scripture, you will experience this ancient prayer form in a group setting, though it is easily adapted to individual practice and can be incorporated into your private prayer life.
