Ignatian Spirituality Partnership of Maine PRESENTS:

“Ignatian Spiritual Exercises in Everyday Life” Set for Virtual Format in Maine Starting in October

OCTOBER 2021 – JUNE 2022

We are pleased to be offering the Ignatian Spiritual Exercises in Everyday Life. This retreat, which will run from the beginning of October 2021 through June 2022, is for people who live in or near Maine, and there are options that would permit someone to be fully remote. Space is limited.

About the Spiritual Exercises

The Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius Loyola are a blueprint for prayer to help people discern God’s presence in their lives. In four stages, referred to as “weeks,” participants contemplate various aspects of their lives, as well as the life, Passion, and Resurrection of Jesus. 

Participants need to make a commitment to praying daily over the materials for the retreat, and typically spend about half an hour each day plus a short time reflecting back over the events of the day. There are two other monthly commitments. 

Retreat Cost = $425 (some financial aid is available)
This cost includes all materials, and averages out to approximately $25 per session.

CATHOLICISM 101 – Episode 6 – PASCHAL MYSTERY

The consequence of sin is death.  Without the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross and his Resurrection, sin and death would still have power over us.

Jesus ransomed us from death, the punishment for sin, by giving himself on the cross
as the payment for our sin debt.  Then he rose from the dead, totally taking away the fearsome power of death.  

Watch a short video from Rachel Bulman - an author, wife and mother, and friend of the Word on Fire Institute, on the power of Christ's Paschal Mystery:

Questions for Reflection: 

• What consequences of sin do you see in your own life and in the world?
• Do you believe that Jesus took your place and suffered for your sins on the cross?  
  Why or why not?
• How is Jesus’ Resurrection the Good News and base of all Christianity?
