Mar. 10 and 24 | Apr. 7

Facilitators: Lori Kneisler and Etta MacDonagh-Dumler

These three sessions offer practical ways of developing and using a prayer journal as an integral part of your prayer practice. Whether you are already journaling or new to the idea, each session offers practice exercises for spiritual journaling as a regular part of your prayer time. No writing skills are necessary, just an openness to pay close attention to your review of prayer and then to capture your response for further deepening your relationship with God. This program invites you to discover ways to journal best suited to your needs and offers an opportunity to discover how spiritual journaling can deepen your listening to the personal experience of God at work in your daily life. Fee: $30 due at registration. Fee is non-refundable, non-transferable. Register here or phone 248.644.4933 Ext. 0.

Come and learn how you can be part of a ministry of hope and healing.

Thursday, March 21, | 7:00-8:00 PM at Manresa

Manresa is hosting an evening of discovery with representatives from Ignatian Spirituality Project (ISP) to give our community the opportunity to learn about ISP’s ministry to men and women recovering from homelessness and addiction, and to appeal to those who might want to get involved in the work they do. 

ISP offers hope and healing experiences through overnight retreats, spiritual reflections and one-on-one companionship. Volunteers walk with people in recovery while sharing their own experiences of hope and healing. ISP is looking particularly for men who are interested in helping to restart their men’s program in the Metro Detroit area as a volunteer team member or supporter. No experience in drug or alcohol recovery or Ignatian spirituality is required, though it would be helpful.

Please come and see how you can put your faith into action by serving God and the men and women of Ignatian Spirituality Project. Please RSVP by March 16 to Allison Loecke, ISP Regional Director, via phone at 312.226.9184 Ext. 109 or email her here.

Aprendiendo a interpretar los movimientos internos del corazón

Domingo de 1:30 a 5:00 PM

21 de abril - Meditación Cristiana, un camino interior

En la tradición Ignaciana, orar con la imaginación se llama contemplación. En los Ejercicios Espirituales de Ignacio de Loyola, la contemplación es una forma activa de oración que involucra la mente y el corazón y suscita pensamientos y emociones. Te invitamos los domingos por la tarde a experimentar la oración contemplativa guiada en español. En cada sesión tendrás un tiempo de reflexión en silencio y un espacio para compartir. Cada sesión será guiada por un acompañante espiritual con experiencia en la tradición espiritual Ignaciana. Costo: Tu donativo es bienvenido. Se alienta a los participantes a donar a Manresa Jesuit Retreat House en apoyo de su Misión. Para registrarse, envíe un correo electrónico a ignacianosdemanresa@gmail.com o al teléfono 248.385.3537.
