IGNATIAN
GUIDED RETREAT
Throughout
the centuries Christian women and men have often joined together on pilgrimage,
journeying in search of the loving presence of God in their lives. On the
road as pilgrims, they have come to know themselves as sinners, but have
as well experienced themselves called to be companions of Jesus. During
this week, retreatants will be invited to travel together as pilgrims in
companionship with Jesus, guided by the major themes of St. Ignatius' Spiritual
Exercises. Retreatants meet as a group for a conference in the morning
and Liturgy of the Eucharist in the evening.

DIRECTED
RETREATS
A
directed retreat invites us to be especially attentive to the movement
of the Holy Spirit within an atmosphere of solitude and silence. Regular
meetings with an experienced director provide opportunities for talking
about one's prayer in order to discern how to continue to listen carefully
to what God is saying in my life. Scripture and life experience provide
the primary material for prayer.

YOGA, PRAYER, AND SPIRITUALITY
We will explore prayer, poetry and spirituality through yoga and movement. Body awareness exercises, breathing techniques and gentle yoga postures will be offered daily as well as time at the pool, walking by the river and exploring the grounds. Rest your mind, relax your body and rejuvenate your soul with yoga and prayer.
Periods of silence will offer participants an opportunity for silence to reconnect to their heart and deeper yearnings. The yogic lifestyle involves living more mindfully and holistically in every aspect of our lives. We will inquire into the ways we pray, connect with God and how we can experience God more present in our daily lives. This retreat welcomes beginners as well as experienced yoga practicioners. Please wear loose comfortable clothing and bring a journal and a mat or beach towel.
