Our midweek Contemplative Gathering is a time to reflect, meditate, and share in contemplation. We contemplate a reading or topic, reflect on it within the group, and meditate. In person as well as online using Zoom. In person gathering is in the Conference Room of the USCABQ office which is across Carol Street from our main building at 9800 Candelaria NE, Albuquerque. For Zoom, this gathering is by invitation so please email the office for the link: office@uscabq.org .
