About the Sponsor

The Center for Action and Contemplation, located in Albuquerque, New Mexico, was founded in 1987 by Franciscan Father Richard Rohr. Father Rohr saw the need for a training/formation center that would allow spiritually seeking people to integrate a contemplative lifestyle and compassionate service. The CAC attracts people from around the world who seek peaceful, positive alternatives and solutions to the difficult challenges of our often materialistic, irrational and violent world. The center offers different programs and resources which you can read about on this website.
