"Thus, contemplation is not simply about God and me. It is also about God and the community of faith of which I am a part. It follows, then, that community is not simply about serving, it is also about prayer. Community is not only about connection, it is also about withdrawal. It is not only about doing, but also about interceding.
Healthy community is not only about externalization but also about internalization. It is as much about the inner life as it is about relationships and seeking to serve the wider society."
(The Seeking Heart, Charles R. Ringma)
