A One-Day Retreat

Facilitated by Philip Shano, SJ

This one-day retreat will be structured around the increasingly relevant and simple suggestion for daily discernment offered in Saint Ignatius’ Examen of Consciousness. This prayer exercise is helpful for those who are busy and occupied with many activities and concerns. Ignatius famously claimed that he could find peace in fifteen minutes, when confronted with life-changing news. Come explore how to find peace in 15 minutes! The day will be both instructional and experiential.

The day will include presentations, prayer exercises, time for personal reflection, celebration of the Eucharist, interaction with other participants, and Loyola House’s hospitality. As always, participants can make use of the beautiful, vast grounds of IJC with the quiet beauty of late fall. The day includes a delicious, wholesome lunch prepared by the renowned Loyola House kitchen.

Philip Shano has been a Jesuit for over 45 years and recently returned to serve at Loyola House, having previously been on the team in the 1990s. Most of his diverse Jesuit ministry has involved retreat work, education, formation and leadership – all rooted in the dynamics of Ignatian spirituality.
