Walking with the Pilgrim: A Guided Ignatian Weekend Retreat
With Fr. Joe Schad, SJ
May 23 - 25, 2025
Reflections on the Life of Ignatius
During this weekend, we will explore some of the events which shaped the spiritual journey of St. Ignatius of Loyola. Along the way, we will be introduced to his graced moments, challenges and faith, with an emphasis on how we can incorporate some of the principles of the Ignatian Exercises into our daily lives and personal prayer practice. There will be a series of short presentations, along with opportunities for silent reflection. We will end with a focused Examen and Blessing.
Date: May 23-25, 2025
Time: Starting at 4:00pm; Ending May 25 after lunch
Note: We will also be offering a silent weekend option simultaneously, with or without spiritual direction. This type of retreat will offer a space of prayer and silence to listen more deeply to the voice of God within, and to share what is heard during this silence with an experienced spiritual guide.
