Prayer using The Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius of Loyola
The theme of the Spiritual Exercises is to know, love and serve God in this world. Join our community in prayer for the seasons of Advent and Lent. The Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius of Loyola help us see who we are – one loved by God. They help us realize we are called by God to follow Jesus Christ, who became man over 2000 years ago to show us how to live. He still shows us how to live today. Those interested in making the Spiritual Exercises or would like more information should contact Frank & Jackie Cesario at 507-625-2395 or by email at fcesario@hickorytech.net.

Please join us to learn about this and much more.
Wisdom: God’s Vision for Life
Begins January 8/9, 2019 - 8 sessions $20 for the Journal
Wisdom will teach you how to actively seek out sound guidance and increase your sense of peace in navigating life. In everything from friendships to finances, from making decisions to attaining peace of mind, Scripture offers a vision for happiness and wellbeing. With this program, you will learn how to gather, gain, and grow in wisdom, and you will experience the joy it brings to your life.
33 Days to Merciful Love:
Begins March 26/27, 2019 – 3 sessions $15 for the book (approximate cost)
This “Do-It-Yourself Retreat” and Consecration was hugely popular last year. Join us again or for the first time to prepare yourself for Consecration to Divine Mercy, with the actual consecration on Divine Mercy Sunday, April 28, 2019. This book has you read 2 pages a day for 33 days and is about St. Therese’s Little Way on how to become a Saint! It is very easy reading and Fr. Michael Gaitley has a simple way of presenting important information. I will be showing the optional DVD’s on March 26/27, April 9/10, and April 23/24, 2019. I highly recommend doing this easy consecration asking Jesus to flood you with the graces that other people are rejecting! Very, very easy.
Call Linda Zumwalde at 720-0467 for inquiries or to sign up for classes. Or you can leave your name at the parish office at 388-2995. Linda will be facilitating these sessions and she is NOT educated, so don’t feel like you cannot do this. Anyone can! Scholarships are available.
