SEPTEMBER
The Cor Jesu Program - The Spiritual Exercises in Daily Life

Would you like to make a thirty-day retreat, the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius Loyola, but do not have a month to spare? St. Ignatius foresaw this situation and provided for it so that you could pray and reflect on the meditations and themes of the Spiritual Exercises even in the midst of your ordinary daily life. The Spiritual Exercises in Daily Life require a commitment of 60 to 90 minutes of daily prayer centered on specific Scripture selections and a weekly meeting with a director for a period of about nine-months. Readiness for this intensive retreat ordinarily grows out of shorter directed retreats, daily prayer, and regular spiritual direction with someone who reflects with you on your experience of God in prayer.

This is a way to grow in prayer; to develop a real and personal relationship with God; to see more clearly God's presence in creation, your personal life story and current life circumstances; to know Jesus more intimately, love Him more deeply, and follow Him more closely;

If you are ready for this retreat experience, Manresa can guide you to an appropriate director, a man or woman who has made the Exercises, has been prepared to walk with you through them, and can help you discover how to pray and how God is leading you. And this is a good time of the year to begin We recommended beginning this retreat in early September so that the usual sequence of prayer and reflection can be in harmony with the celebrations of the liturgical year.

The program is usually offered from September to May. Tuition is $640 in eight monthly installments and a one-time copying fee of $25. If you are interested, contact Ann Dillon at Manresa Jesuit Retreat House for further details and information by e-mail or at 248.644.4933

With Janis Fletcher, PhD.

The class is about how the early Christians came to a deeper awareness of Jesus‘ identity and mission by searching their Scriptures for illumination. How Growing Christian Insight into Jesus‘ Identity Redefined Old Terms. Each New Testament title for Jesus—Christ/Messiah, Son of God, Son of Man, the Word, the Lord, among others—is rooted in the Old Testament.

OCTOBER 24 (Sunday) Making a Good Decision: A Workshop on Ignatian Discernment

Are you faced with having to make a decision that may impact your personal life, family or social life, or career? For example: Should I go to this or that school? Should I look for a new job or stay where I am? Should I stay in this relationship or not? Should I care for my ailing parent at home or in a nursing home? If so, then this workshop is for you!

Workshop participants will learn the basics of St. Ignatius' writings on discernment so that they can begin to apply these practical rules to a concrete decision-major or minor-in their lives. Questions to be answered include:
When is our discernment required? What can our feelings tell us about God's will? What steps can I take to make sure that my ultimate choices are for God's greater glory in and through me? How do I know when to act on my decision? Reflection materials will be mailed to participants prior to the workshop to make the most of our time together.

Facilitator: Annmarie Cano Wurm, Ph.D.
When: Sunday, October 24, 2009 from 2 PM-7:30 PM
Cost: $45 (includes readings, postage, and dinner)

To Register: Mail a $20 nonrefundable deposit (to be applied toward the cost of the workshop) to Manresa Jesuit Retreat House by October 20 (checks payable to "Manresa"). You may also register and pay for the workshop with a credit card on line or by calling the Manresa Office.
