Activity:

Ignatian spirituality is best understood through experience. Thus, you are invited to take time out from each of your very busy days, for seven days in a row, to engage in a few minutes of Ignatian prayer and reflection. Choose one of the following three options:

The Examen: A Daily Prayer
Worldly Reflection: Creating Privileged Moments
Scriptural Reflection: Finding God in All Things


Reflection Questions:

  • What insights did I gain about myself personally and/or professionally through the process of Ignatian reflection?
  • How might the practice of Ignatian spirituality influence my work (for instance, with regards to the tasks of collaboration, budget management, offering advice, hiring, supervising, planning, etc.)?
