Start the New Year and follow your Desire to Deepen your Relationship with God.

This retreat invites you to experience the intimacy of God’s unconditional love for you. It adapts material from the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius of Loyola whose contemplative practices have enlivened and transformed the lives of countless participants for over four Centuries. The retreat is open to all men and women of all denominations and no prior experience with Ignatian Spirituality is necessary. Participants will seek to deepen their personal relationship with God/Christ by using the “Ignatian Prayer Method” of praying with Scripture and experiencing & allowing those passages to speak to your life experience. This retreat provides you an opportunity to take time to move more deeply into relationship with Christ. “Who is Christ for You?”

This 6 week at-home online retreat includes a series of daily prayer “exercises” which helps participants to experience God’s love, and to live more wholeheartedly out of that love. Ignatian Spirituality calls men and women to be “Contemplatives in Action” and develop a “spiritual attitude” as a way to become more aware of God’s presence in their home, workplace, families, communities, and in themselves. Each retreatant will be assigned a personal spiritual director who will meet 1:1 weekly with you throughout your retreat.

Expectations: 

• Participants are asked to pray 30-40 minutes a day with passages that your spiritual director will assign weekly.
• Use a journal to record your reflections after each prayer period (10-15min).
• Meet once a week for 50 minutes with one of the retreat’s spiritual directors. Times to meet weekly will be determined on an individual basis according to retreatant and spiritual director’s schedules.
