ABOUT THIS PROGRAM
In this experiential discernment series, we will explore various ways to listen to the Spirit’s movement in our lives, choices, and communities. Through prayer, reimagined presentations, meaningful, creative reflection, and conversation in community, we will consider Ignatian discernment and discuss how it applies in the midst of our current cultural, social, racial and personal contexts. Together, we will learn to cultivate and embody these principles in our everyday lives.
This program is for anyone interested in learning about and integrating Ignatian Discernment as a spiritual practice – newcomers, as well as those seeking to deepen their understanding, are encouraged to participate. All are welcome!
