Online Prayer

School of Prayer

February 2, 2023

There are many exercises for improving our physical health and wellbeing. Ignatius of Loyola wrote what he called the Spiritual Exercises, a variety of ways of praying to develop our spiritual health and wellbeing, our relationship with God and the world. Just like physical exercise, if we talk about it but don’t actually engage in any exercise, this will not be very fruitful! So, with this online day we introduce exercises that you may find it useful to practise – and the more you practise, the more benefits you will feel.

This event which is an ideal introduction to Ignatian prayer led by our team, takes place over Zoom. The day will involve being guided in prayer, individual time for prayer, sharing in small groups. After the day you will be given further suggestions to continue your prayer journey.

Dates: Thursday 2nd February 2023

              Tuesday 28th February 2023

Times: 10am-4pm on Zoom, including breaks for time off screen.

Please note, the times above are in GMT (London time).
