The Epiphany Group in association with the Society of Jesus proposes to offer a series of training seminars to improve understanding of the full Spiritual Exercises of Ignatius of Loyola and to develop confidence in giving the full Exercises.
If you are considering giving the Spiritual Exercises as part of your ministry in accompanying others, this training will give you a good foundation
from which to begin.
“Contemporary practice in training guides in the Ignatian tradition almost universally proceeds by leading them through systematic reflection on their own experience of making the Exercises.” (Paul Nicholson sj)
The seminar format will include input from Gero McLoughlin sj, Alison Moody and Elizabeth South. Proceeding according to Ignatian method, seminar members will participate actively by contributing from their own experience of the
Spiritual Exercises. This will mean preparing and presenting some of the sessions, and engaging with the material presented.
You are eligible to apply if you have made the full Spiritual Exercises as an individually guided retreat, either over 30 full days or in the course of daily life. Some evidence of formal training in accompanying others is also expected.
Dates
9 Thursdays 10.00am – 4.00pm
October 2010 – June 2011

The full cost of the training seminars is £300.00. Participants are expected to attend each session. Limited subsidies up to half the full cost may be available, please indicate when applying if requesting a subsidy.
