Bede Griffiths Trust
"The Bede Griffiths Association was founded to promote the renewal of contemplative life in the contemporary church and world. This renewal requires, in Fr. Bede's words 'a marriage of contemplation and action.' The Trust promotes the awareness and practice of contemplative prayer, and helps people to dispose themselves to receive the grace of contemplation which, Fr. Bede believed, is offered to everyone. Contemplative practice and experience will, in turn, nurture a spirit of peace and compassion among the peoples of the earth."
