Men & Women’s Ignatian Weekend Retreat

“A Heart Centered Approach to the Spiritual Exercises”
The Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius are designed to lead one into a deeper relationship with Jesus. This retreat will help you examine your own heart and then enter into the Heart of Jesus. There you will find the fulfillment of the prophecy of Ezekiel “I will give you a new heart and place a new spirit within you, taking from your bodies your stony hearts and giving you natural hearts.” This retreat led by Fr. Jim Kubicki, SJ will follow the prayers of the Spiritual Exercises in hopes that through silence and prayer, these will be days of encountering our God who desires to reveal Himself to you. The fee is $275 and includes a private room and meals during your 2-night stay at the Jesuit Spiritual Center.
