How can poets enrich and deepen my prayer life? We will come to pray by reflecting on the poetry of Jessica Powers, David Whyte, Mary Oliver and other not-so-well-known poets.

This Part One series is for those in mid-life and later years who are considering the aging process as a time of transition and new life.

The series will explore the dynamics, content and grace of each week of the Spiritual Exercises. Our gathering and interacting will deepen our experiential understanding of the Exercises as they unfold in everyday life and prayer.

During our time together, we will pray with the theme of blessing and being blessed, throughout all of the seasons of our lives.

Spiritual Directors, Retreat Guides, Hospice Workers, Chaplains, Pastoral Ministers…
