Become immense inside

Cultivate personal rituals of solitude. Learn to be with it all. Become immense inside. Set your prayers on fire.

~ Mary Ellen Lough

There is no cost to have the Friends of Silence monthly letter sent to you each month.

For the past 35 years, a small band of dedicated friends have poured their hearts and love into Friends of Silence.

Each month we send out the newsletter in print and email to a growing community of over 10,000 people.

The monthly newsletter of contemplative quotes remains free and is made possible by your generosity and support.

If our work brings you any hope and a sense of belonging, then please consider supporting our labor of love with a donation.

And if you’ve already given, from the bottom of our hearts: THANK YOU.

If thou shouldn'st never see my face again, pray for my soul. More things are wrought by prayer than this world dreams of.
