Come join me, Deacon Peter, in the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius of Loyola.

"St. Ignatius underwent a profound experience of God during his stay in the little town of Manresa in Spain.
His heart's desire was, as a lay person, to share with other lay people this same experience.
As time went on he wrote a small book to assist in doing this. He called his book of directions
The Spiritual Exercises. It was intended to help the person who directed another in a structured program
of prayer and contemplation.

Some of the major themes normally addressed in the four phases of the Exercises are: first part, Consideration and  Contemplation of Sin; 
second part, The Life of Christ; third part, The Passion of Christ; and the fourth part, Resurrection and Ascension
( Contemplation to attain the love of God ). "
