Contemplative Prayer is a kingly practice of being Contemplatives.

We journey with Christ to the Mountain in contemplative prayer, which is a form of prayer by which we cultivate the continual experience of Christ’s presence in all times and places. Our regular practice of this kind of prayer increases our capacity as Contemplatives to embrace the mystery of the Kingdom in which we experience Christ’s presence both when we withdraw in worship and when we engage the fallen world. As such, while we do indeed set aside daily times for contemplative prayer, we do so with the larger aim of developing a contemplative lifestyle that practices the presence of Christ constantly, without ceasing day and night.
