What are Spiritual Exercises?
Spiritual Exercises in everyday life help in growing in greater knowledge of every way of preparing and disposing one’s soul toward God and ridding oneself of disordered attachments so as to be liberated in faith. Spiritual Exercises help in becoming more fully human in God, in Christ and in power while simultaneously deepening our ability to be an apostolate instrument of God’s power in and through Christ Jesus for all. This formation helps to better understand and experience what true and pure spirit is as well as deepen the ability to share acts of hospitality and blessings of wholeness and fullness of life. Grow in the depths of God’s faithfulness by keeping channels of the heart open while not causing harm to the soul.
This ministry shares practices handed down through the early church and still used today to provide the dynamics of awakening to our true identity, vocation, mission and name of grace. These practices help in understanding, objectifying, and articulating one’s own living faith, hope, and love, and enabling persons to discern and respond to the motions of grace from God and to discern and incarnate their consolations in daily life.
Growth in the spiritual life is recognized by a softening of heart, increase in compassion, an increase in self-knowledge, as well as a greater acceptance of self and docility with God.
