Spiritual Exercises in the Ignatian Pattern
Through four sessions of orientation the retreatants are
taught the methods of meditation and prayer developed by Saint
Ignatius of Loyola. They are prepared for the prayer periods made
at home, and guided in a spirituality that has nurtured the laity
for centuries.
Week One
The daily meditations are on the subject of sin and conversion of
life. On the seventh day the Sacrament of Reconciliation is
available. For centuries people have traced the experience of
true conversion of life to this first week of Spiritual
Exercises.
Week Two
The entire concentration is on the public life of Jesus. The
daily meditations made at home are an encounter with Jesus,
healer, preacher, leader of the apostolic community. Be among the
many who discover a new life of prayer in this week.
Week Three
Brings us to contemplation of the Passion of Jesus. The
retreatant accompanies the Redeemer on the difficult paths from
the Last supper, into the Garden of Olives, the Courts of the
Trials, Calvary, and the Tomb. Experience and understand the love
of God for you in a profound opening to the Passion of Jesus.
Week Four
The Risen Lord Jesus is the focus of each prayer time. Join all
those who since the 16th century, have completed the Spiritual
Exercises of Saint Ignatius of Loyola and entered on a path of
holiness and evangelization.
A Call to Prayer
An experience shared with thousands of lay people. Each
session includes praying Evening or Night Prayer and instruction
in the spirituality, history, and mechanics of Liturgy of the
Hours. This program has proven itself to be a powerful tool for
giving the busy lay person a format for daily prayer.
