The guided retreat "Experiencing God: Our Interior Movements Explained Using Ignatius' Rules for Discernment" will use Ignatian Contemplation, imaginative prayer, and senses to engage in conversation with God.

​

The focus will be on understanding our interiority using the model of Internal Family System (IFS) as a means to intimate prayer with God/Jesus/Spirit. We all have parts of us that are sad, joyful, anxious, discouraged, happy, funny, and many more. Having such parts is a natural aspect of adult life, and sharing such interior movements in a familiar way with God/Jesus/Spirit is what Ignatian prayer helps us to do.

​

Our days will consist of two talks and mass. There is ample time to pray. This retreat is practical, encouraging curiosity, connection, and compassion with ourselves and with God.
