Do you desire to deepen your relationship with God, grow in spiritual discernment, and live a life of greater freedom and purpose?
Come discover a practice that will move you to greater spiritual depth. The Spiritual Exercises of Saint Ignatius of Loyola offers a way of praying that reveals the God in our daily lives, deepens our awareness of God, and opens our hearts to God’s transformative power. The Spiritual Exercises consist of four thematic “weeks” that invite participants to walk with Christ through his life, death, and resurrection imaginatively and allowing interaction with our lives. The undergirding concept of the Spiritual Exercises is immersion into the abundant love of God shown through Christ and experienced in everyday living.
Retreatants gather monthly online in small groups to share insights as to how God is revealing himself during individual devotional practices.
