Day Retreat: Praying with Ignatius Loyola & The Spiritual Exercises

Through his own experience of prayer and reflection after his conversion, Ignatius of Loyola came to the belief that each person could have a direct experience and intimate relationship with God.

The style and manner of Ignatius’ prayer entail his great gift and legacy for Christianity and the world. The Spiritual Exercises, Ignatian Contemplation, and other elements of Ignatian Spirituality are tremendous resources for each person’s journey of faith.

This retreat includes:

  • In-Depth Presentations on Ignatian Spirituality
  • Practical ways to pray the Spiritual Exercises
  • Time for Personal Prayer and Reflection
  • Large and Small Group Sharing and Conversation
  • Lunch (12pm) and Dinner (5pm) are provided (retreat ends 6:00pm Saturday)
  • *Attend, “Spirit Night: Beloved, Forgiven, Healed” 5:30pm-9:00pm for free! (see below).

You will have the opportunity, in a welcoming and prayerful environment, to become more aware of our ever-present God and to assist you in finding God in all things. Regardless of your prior experience with Ignatian Spirituality, this retreat will provide you the time and space to grow in your relationship with God.
