A weekend of quiet, relaxation, and prayer. The weekend is based on St. Ignatius’s Examen Prayer, a method of prayer which helps us to recall the God’s movement in our lives and to consider the ways in which we are being drawn to a deeper relationship with God and others. The majority of the retreat is spent in silence as retreatants listen to Chaplain reflections, spend time in prayer and meditation, and enjoy the beautiful retreat center. The silence is broken briefly on Saturday evening for dinner and large-group  conversation. During the weekend, opportunities for individual spiritual direction and/or the Sacrament of Reconciliation are offered. We gather as a group for Mass and Morning and Evening Prayer. This retreat is a helpful introduction to Ignatian Prayer, or a good way to re-center yourself in the midst of a busy academic year.
