2026 FALL OFFERING…

Invitation To “An Igntian Adventure”

I’m gathering a small, co-ed group to journey through the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius beginning in mid-September. The Exercises—developed by St. Ignatius of Loyola—are a prayerful pathway of meditations, Scripture, and contemplative practices designed to deepen one’s relationship with God. If you haven’t experienced them before, I cannot recommend them highly enough.

Over the past year, I’ve been walking through the Exercises with my Spiritual Director, and it has become a pivotal landmark in my spiritual journey. God has been teaching me so much, and I’m eager to accompany others along this same path—personally, and within the support of a small community.

What Participation Looks Like…

  • Daily Rhythm: Aim for about 30 minutes of prayer with Scripture most days each week for 32 weeks. Life happens—missed days are normal. God’s grace abounds, and the Scripture plan gently guides you step by step through this centuries-old course.

  • Orientation Retreat: An in-person kickoff (2–3 hours) on Saturday, September 19, introducing the flow of the Exercises and setting us up for the journey. (At a beautiful setting)

  • Individual Spiritual Direction: A monthly one-on-one session with me to attend to what God is stirring in you.

  • Group gatherings: A monthly (mostly virtual) meeting to preview the upcoming stage of the Exercises and share how God is showing up.

  • Closing retreat: An in-person, celebratory gathering to name and share the graces received.  (At a beautiful setting)

    Schedule and Breaks:

  • Start: Orientation in mid-September.

  • End: Last week of May or first week of June, depending on group needs.

  • Breaks: We’ll pause around Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter as needed.

    Cost and Registration: 

  • Fee: $640 total for the 32-week journey (includes orientation and closing retreats, monthly group sessions, and monthly individual spiritual direction).

  • Deposit: $160 to reserve your spot. Because this is a small group, spaces may fill quickly.

  • Let’s Talk First: Before you register, I’d love a brief conversation to discern whether this is the right season for you.
