Abstract

This retreat was given by Fr. Gillick, S.J. at the Demontreville Jesuit Retreat House, Lake Elmo, Minnesota, September 10-13, 2009|THE SPIRITUAL EXERCISES|A confrontation with our shame.|An invitation to honor.|Presented by Fr. Larry Gillick, S.J. of Creighton University|The conferences are centered around the basic experiences of the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius. The major theme is how we experience and deal with our shame and how Jesus reverses shame and its paralyzings to our being mercifully honored and missioned. These Exercises are not so much about answers, but to inspire the reverent asking of the right questions and praying with the searchings.|This is a retreat of twelve, thirty-minute conferences designed to lead to a prayerful reflection on how our actions flow from our attitudes and the recalling of how Jesus deals now with us as He did with women and men of His time.|
