About This Retreat:

  • Type: The full Spiritual Exercises offered in the 19th Annotation format, also called the Retreat in Daily Life.

  • About: St. Ignatius designed a retreat called the Spiritual Exercises to help people deepen their relationship with Jesus Christ and grow in the inner freedom to discern where God is truly calling them. The Spiritual Exercises can be made at a retreat house for an intense 30 days or done in daily life. Ignatius realized that busy people at home need an alternative. This retreat in daily life takes 8-9 months and is done with a guide. You commit to an hour of daily prayer using Ignatian contemplations and meet weekly with your director. It is a significant undertaking but richly rewarding.

  • Format: In-person or online. (A hybrid option is also possible using on-line methods along with in person meetings.)

  • Location: Online via Zoom or at Holy Family Church, (826 W. Central Ave., Davidsonville, MD.)
