What is God asking of me? Discernment Retreat Days

If you ever wonder what God may be asking of you? Come and join us as we explore ways of discerning the voice of God speaking to us at the core of our being.

God speaks to us in the depths of our being, not off the top of our heads. The depths of ourselves are not in our reasoning and in our ideas, still less in someone else’s reasoning and ideas. If we are to find God, we must learn to listen to these depths, to the emotions and feelings which we experience in prayer and out of it. In Search of a Way. Gerard W Hughes. SJ

In order to hear what God may be saying to us we need to listen deeply and learn to distinguish the loving voice of our Creator from any others.The Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius of Loyola provide us with the means to recognize the interior movement of spirits in order to live our lives in that way which is most life-giving.

The two retreat days will include praying with scripture, imaginative contemplation, sacred conversation and other spiritual exercises taught to us by St Ignatius.
