Jesus walked the earth over 2000 years ago.

St Ignatius of Loyola lived over 500 years ago.

Creation, itself, has been here for billions of years.

You are here, living out your life in 2026.

And yet…

these stories all beautifully connected across space and time and mysteriously interwoven.

Using the amazing gift of your imagination, you are invited by St Ignatius to

step into the story of Jesus,
walk alongside Him,
learn from Him,
fall in Love with Him,

all the while discovering your place
in the Divine story of everything,

where your deepest desires and
God's desires for you are
one and the same.

The Spiritual Exercises of St Ignatius is an eight month “retreat in daily life” in which you will:

  • notice God’s work and gentle guidance in your life,

  • discover your divinely-placed desires,

  • learn to make decisions from a place of inner freedom,

  • explore your personal mission in the world.

In this offering of the Exercises, you will:

  • Have daily prayers, readings, and meditations to engage with each day. You’ll want to set aside a sacred 30-45 minutes each day for your practice.

  • Meet one-on-one with me each week for 30-45 minutes to discuss what God is stirring within and revealing to you. (At a regular time that we both agree upon)

  • Begin your journey the week of September 28 and will conclude mid May.

Along the way, we will have some Mini-Retreats built in!

We will gather for 75-90 minutes on a Saturday morning for some guided gentle movement, centering prayer, and a short teaching on an Ignatian concept relevant to where we are in the Exercises, such as The Prayer of Examen, Rules of Discernment, and Finding God in All Things.

If you are unable to attend live, you will have access to the recording.

If you feel a stirring in your spirit and want to know more, please reach out!

“Our deepest joy, the calling that’s in the very core of us, is to live our lives centered upon the Source of all life, rejoicing in everything that gives life.”
