SotF 2018 – An Introduction to Ignatian Discernment (Fr. John O’Brien, SJ)

Join St. Therese School of Faith and Mission Students for a week of instruction, workshop, prayer and reflection on an Introduction to Ignatian Discernment.

In this series of teachings drawn from the rich spiritual tradition of St. Ignatius of Loyola, you will receive formation in how to…

• Identify the origins of spiritual influences on your interior life in order to respond properly to them and grow in holiness.
• Use the Rules for Discernment of Spirits as presented in the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius of Loyola.
• Establish the essential conditions in your spiritual life in order to discern God’s will for you.

This course is suitable for those whom have never studied the Ignatian principles, and as a refresher for those whom have had previous experience in Ignatian Discernment.

Following this introduction to Ignatian Discernment , the students enrolled in the St. Therese Nine-Month Faith Formation Program will continue their study of Ignatian Discernment with second week of practical application in a guided, week-long, Ignatian retreat.
