CAC Faculty & Staff

Clear away the old to make room for new growth this Lenten season. Join us every Sunday during Lent at 8:30 a.m. PT for FREE online Virtual Sit Meditations led by CAC faculty and staff.

Explore teachings from Richard Rohr’s “Wondrous Encounters” and his new book “The Tears of Things,” dialogue with other seekers in the live chat, and enter contemplative stillness in a shared online space. You can keep your practice alive during the week by signing up for our free Lent email series.


Since its founding in 1987, the Center for Action and Contemplation has begun each day with a 20-minute period of contemplative prayer that Fr. Richard Rohr likes to call “Daily Sit.” Led by CAC faculty and staff, these Virtual Sit Meditations offer our global CAC community a time of shared reflection, stillness, and insight. 

“You cannot know God solely with your mind. You need full access knowing, which many call the contemplative mind.”

—Richard Rohr
