Julian Meeting

Julian Meetings are available both onsite and online. A warm welcome awaits.

A Julian Meeting is usually made up of  6-15 people of any denomination who meet regularly. A brief reading, or piece of music, leads into about 30 minutes of silent, contemplative  prayer. This may be followed by a time for conversation.

Our main guidelines are that:

• Each meeting is centred on contemplative prayer in the Christian tradition;
• It welcomes people of all denominations;
• It welcomes those seeking a place for silent prayer. 

We teach no specific method, but our ‘Basics of Contemplative Prayer’ booklet gives some guidelines. We encourage people to seek what is right for them; to discover how they can integrate contemplation into their daily prayer life and how personal and group contemplative prayer can enrich each other.

Onsite meetings:

All Saints Church, Loughton, Pitcher Lane, Milton Keynes, MK5 8AS on the last Thursday of every month at 10am. 

Christ the Cornerstone, 300 Saxon Gate West, Central Milton Keynes, Milton Keynes, MK9 2ES on the first Thursday every month at 1pm.

Due to the contemplative nature of the meeting please try and arrive 5 minutes before.

Online meetings:

Via Zoom on the second Thursday of the month at 7.30pm.
