Center for Spiritual Development at Saint James Monkton

How lovely is your dwelling place,
O Lord of hosts!

My soul longs, indeed it faints
For the courts of the Lord;
My heart and my flesh sing for joy
To the living God.
Psalm 84

Pilgrimage begins in the heart of community. As we are strengthened, and challenged, by our regular worship, we are also sent out to bring light to others.

At the Center for Spiritual Development we typically begin our pilgrimages in the space where the Eucharist is regularly offered. This reminds us of the One we seek and the companions, both known and unknown who accompany us.

The Sanctuary at St. James Church has been standing since 1750. The prayer of generations has filled this space, hallowed it, and nurtured those who kneel under its vaulted ceiling. Come join your prayers to theirs.
