OFFERINGS FOR DAY TO DAY IGNATIAN LIVING
MORNING PRAYER
As a small community of believers we meet daily to pray together and deepen our understanding of Ignatian spirituality. We use the book "An Ignatian book of days" to start us off and lead us into a short time of prayer and community.
You can join the group, when it is possible for you to do so. It is as a very uplifting and positive way to start the day.
Starts when you sign up
When: Mondays to Fridays
Time: At 08:30 to 08:50 CET
Venue: On line
Please complete the application form to receive the call-in details.
SPIRITUAL ACCOMPANIMENT
Do you want to speak to someone to explore further your relationship with God or delve a bit further into your beliefs?
One of our Spiritual Accompaniers would be happy to meet with you either face to face or online to discuss this with you. The number of sessions will be agreed upon between yourself and your accompanier.
If you want to know more or discuss this further, please complete the registration form.
When: When you sign up
Time: Mutually agreed times

SUPERVISION

Lectio Divina
Sponsored by the Holy Trinity Church in Geneva
Thanks to our Holy Trinity Church community we are invited to join them on a weekly basis to enter for 45 minutes in prayer using Lectio Divina as the basis. This form of prayer is a meditative practice. With the help of a short Bible study passage read aloud three or four times, this is a chance to allow a word or phrase from the passage to speak to you and to listen for what God may be saying to you in the moment. There is also a time for sharing, however, this is fully optional.
When : Every Wednesday from 12h30-13h15 (CET)
Where: Currently on Zoom – for the link please contact Mary Talbot
Everyone is welcome!
