Daily Reflection Resources

Faculty and Staff: Mission Lenten Daily Reflection (Weekly throughout Lent)

As a means of personally deepening your relationship to God, Mission Integration invites you to participate in a six week reflection series beginning the first week of Lent, Monday, February 15th.

The series uses a contemporary text that roots itself in the Spiritual Exercises of St Ignatius. In Forgiveness: A Guide for Prayer, Jacqueline Syrup Bergan and Sister Marie Schwan provide an opportunity for people to grow deeper in their relationship with God through prayerful focus on the topic of forgiveness. The guide encourages us to re-imagine what it means to pray and helps us see with new eyes God’s presence and activity in our daily lives. The guide will provide a daily reflection for the six weeks of Lent. Those participating in the daily reflections will have the opportunity to virtually gather each week for shared reflection on the prior week’s reading.

To register and reserve a copy of the book, Forgiveness, A Guide for Prayer please email Chris Murphy at cmurph3@luc.edu. Please include your home address if you want the book mailed to you.
