About this program
After a year full of gifts, growth, and challenge, we pause for a moment to take a breath, give thanks, grow in awareness of God’s love, and seek hope for the journey ahead. Through the movements of the Examen we will look back at our experiences and, with an open heart, embrace the path before us as we usher in the new year.
This silent mini-retreat includes brief presentations leading us through movements of the Examen, guidelines for prayer, abundant time for personal reflection and journaling, and a small group at the end of the day—all designed to support you on your spiritual journey.
This program is for anyone who is interested in Ignatian spirituality (either little, some or a lot of experience), and has a desire to put into practice Ignatian tools for reflection. All are welcome!
You will receive a Zoom meeting link at registration. There will be a series of short presentations throughout the day, followed by personal reflection times off-screen. Please note that the times listed are for Pacific Standard Time (PST).
