Waypoints Spiritual Direction
Navigating the Journey of Faith with the Spiritual Exercises of Ignatius Loyola.
“All the things in this world are gifts of God, created for us, to be the means by which we can come to know him better, love him more surely, and serve him more faithfully.”
Waypoints Spiritual Direction provides digital video conference-based Ignatian Spiritual Exercises to help you deepen your relationship with God. This confidential, one-to-one retreat, will enrich your prayer life and enhance your spiritual journey. We give the complete Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius Loyola according to the 19th Annotation, a 32-36 week-long guided retreat that you can integrate into your daily routine. The retreat is especially helpful for those:
Wanting to draw closer to God.
Seeking a deeper understanding of faith than they have experienced from their parish,church, or independent search.
Seeking clarity of God’s will about an impending major decision or life change.
Preparing for a specific ministry, service, or management responsibility.
In active ministry: priests, deacons, pastors, social servants, and other ordained ministers such as counselors, teachers, parish and church staff, among others.
Ignatian Exercises in Daily Life
Sometimes known as the Spiritual Exercises in Everyday Life, or the Ignatian Exercises in Daily Life, or the Ignatian Retreat in Everyday Life, the Spiritual Exercises will help you learn to listen in prayer and speak to God more intimately. By relying on prayer and scripture, the use of your intellect and your imagination to learn to discern the movements of your heart — your feelings and desires — the Exercises will help you understand what Jesuits call “the religious dimension of experience” in your life. You will learn how to make better choices that draw you closer to God rather than making choices that lead you away from God.
You do not have to be Catholic to make the Exercises. Many Protestants, Orthodox, Jews, and those exploring the Christian faith, benefit from the spiritual disciplines acquired during the retreat.
That you are exploring the Spiritual Exercises of Ignatius Loyola today may be evidence of these movements inviting you into a deeper relationship with God.
