Meeting Christ in Prayer
Wednesdays, October 5th to November 30th
Morning Session: 9:30 – 11:00 AM
Evening Session: 7:00 – 8:30 PM
Parish Lounge
“Meeting Christ in Prayer” is an eight-week program of
spiritual renewal based on the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius.
It is a fresh opportunity to encounter Jesus Christ, to
grow in knowledge and understanding of Him, to imitate
His love, and to renew one’s participation in His risen life.
Because the process is specifically designed for parishes, it
offers a guided approach to spiritual renewal through
weekly faith-sharing groups with experienced facilitators.
Each weekly gathering includes a guided meditation, faith
sharing, and orientation for the prayer of the following
week. Open to both beginners in the spiritual journey
and those committed to a prayer life for years, the commitment
of participants is daily personal prayer of 30 minutes and an
“examen,” or review of the day, in the evening.
Suggested scale for offering: $30 – $50 to cover materials.
To register, contact Sr. Kathryn King
at the Parish House (212-288-3588)
or [email protected]

Monday, September 26th, 7:00 PM

reflect on our own ministerial experiences. All ministers of
compassionate care are invited.
