Christian Meditation Ministry
The Christian Meditation Ministry seeks to promote contemplative prayer, the prayer of the heart, where we are not thinking of God or talking to Him nor asking for anything. We are simply being with God who is in us through the Holy Spirit whom Jesus has given us. We teach a simple method of silence, stillness and simplicity and through our regular weekly meetings we give support to each other. Weekly meetings are Friday mornings from 10:30 am to 11:45 am and Monday evenings from 7:30 pm to 8:45 pm.

Grupo de oración en español “Mateo 25”
The Spanish Prayer Group "Mateo 25" was created to address a need expressed by parishioners who attend Mass in Spanish who were seeking the help of a prayer group to increase their spiritual and personal growth. Members felt a calling from God to achieve a goal: to be a large and vibrant prayer group that benefits all in achieving a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, to open themselves to prayer and the reading of the Bible, to find significant relationship, to develop their potential to serve others and the OLQP parish. The primary mission of Mateo 25 is to evangelize people in their native Spanish language, build the word of God and achieve growth each day. Encourage service through a ministry of prayer, liturgy, social activities and welcome. Join members of of Mateo 25 Wednesdays, 7-9 pm for the Rosary, praise, prayer, Gospel reading and personal reflections.

JustFaith
JustFaith is a justice-oriented formation process, which provides opportunities for individuals to study and be formed by the justice tradition articulated by the Scriptures, the Church's historical witness, theological inquiry and Church social teaching. Participants are empowered to develop a passion and thirst for justice and to express this in concrete acts of social ministry in their parish and in the community at large. This 24-week course, that can be done in 8-week intervals, begins in September.

Minkisi Ministry
"Lord, send the gift of your Spirit to fill this place, myself and the world." The Minkisi ministry believes that in the Spirit of the Living God we are all people of African descent on a spiritual journey - called to be healing instruments of God. In April 1997, this ministry began shortly after a parish revival led by Fr. A.J. McKnight, C.S.Sp. A small group of parishioners accepted the retreat director's challenge to continue meeting with others as "Christians under construction." Monthly parish gatherings focus on several aspects of adult faith formation: scripture, contemplative prayer, individual and group reflection, interracial dialogue and social action in the surrounding Nauck community. All are invited to the small group sessions usually held the first Monday of each month at 7:15 pm in the Discussion Room of the Parish Office Building. Nourishing open hearts and spirits, Minkisi also provides leadership in prayer services, in coffee hours and in the annual November mini-retreats. For more information on our activities, visit the Minkisi Ministry web page.
