THE SPIRITUAL EXERCISES OF ST. IGNATIUS
A Retreat in Everyday Life
A new group is forming. Call to register.

The Spiritual Exercises created by Ignatius of Loyola are one of the unique and special time-tested traditions of spiritual transformation in church history. Based on his own conversion experience, the Exercises are designed to be a way of re-discovering God's unique love for us in a heartfelt, experiential way. It is an opportunity to learn again to hear the language of love with which God speaks to us. During this retreat in everyday life, we wlook at the dynamics inherent in the process of the Exercises, practice the prayer format specific to the Exercises and share the prayer experiences of the graces received. This retreat offers a taste of the transforming Exercises as they are lived in the reality of everyday life.

Two weeks of Introduction to the Exercises. Fee: $35
Four sections, each five weeks long for a total of twenty weeks.
Fee: each section is $60 and $40 per spiritual direction session.
