RISEN Retreat: 12 Weeks of Spiritual Exercises
Type: A self-guided Ignatian retreat in daily life based on the Spiritual Exercises
Format: The retreat is made independently. However, we suggest small group faith sharing every week or every other week.
Dates: This 12-week, self-guided Ignatian retreat can be done asynchronously, however, we suggest starting on a Sunday.
About: RISEN is a self-guided Ignatian retreat for daily life based on the Spiritual Exercises. It uses a text offered through Jesuit Sources: "Becoming an Easter People: Considering the Joy of the Lord" by Joseph Tetlow, S.J. The book is an extended adaptation for praying with the Exercises. It provides daily prayer content and space for taking notes.
In addition to the book, which will guide your daily prayer, the "Retreat Content" section includes additional retreat presentations and reflections, led by Fr. Casey Beaumier, S.J.
