Three-Day Ignatian Silent Retreat Begins Oct. 18

Campus Ministry will host the Three-Day Ignatian Silent Retreat from Friday, Oct. 18, 2024, at 5:30 p.m. to Sunday, Oct. 20, 2024 at 3:00 p.m. at Chapman Lake Retreat Center.

The cost of the retreat is $40 and includes accommodations, all meals and snacks, materials and daily meetings with a spiritual director. Fee assistance is available.

The Silent Retreat is a great opportunity to rest in the quiet and disconnect from the busyness of life.

The retreat offers time to reconnect with God and one's inner self. Prayers and reflections from the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius will guide participants through the weekend.

Participants will speak daily to a spiritual companion to discuss how the retreat is going.

During the silence participants will have time for praying, reading, reflecting, journaling, engaging with nature, expressing themselves through art and gathering for group prayer services.

The Silent Retreat is a unique experience that allows for space and time to hear how God is speaking in one's life.

Students can register for the Silent Retreat on Royal Sync.
