Consider six to nine month spiritual exercises retreat
Do you long for God? Do you desire time to reflect on your own spiritual path and the movement of the spirit in your
life? Spiritual Exercises in Everyday life is a 6 to 9 month retreat based on the spiritual exercises of St. Ignatius
of Loyola. Ignatius recognized that not only the intellect but also the emotions and feelings can help us come to a
knowledge of the movement of the spirit in our lives.
Retreatants beccome better able to discern their inner desires and to see how God is working in their lives and in
the world. Ignatius drew on a number of sources and the Exercises contain different kinds of prayer. A readiness
to pray with Scripture is important. Group montly retreats, discussion, individual reflection, and individual spiritual
direction are foundational for this retreat.
We invite you to consideer participating in this retreat over a six to nine month period. Spiritual Exercises
in Everyday life requires a time committment. We invite you to commit to one hour of prayer each day for the duration
of the retreat, one monthly day retreat, and bi-weekly spiritual direction.
