This week-long retreat gives you the opportunity to experience a contemplative “time away” with daily spiritual direction, without traveling to a retreat center and leaving your daily routine. Based on the Spiritual Exercises of Saint Ignatius, the Retreat in Daily Life was created by John Veltri, SJ, as a way for people to experience the gifts of this structured 40-day retreat in a 5-day format. Meant for those who long to encounter Jesus more deeply, and aimed toward finding God in all things, the Retreat in Daily Life is a guided experience of the love of God, rather than more things to think about God.
During the course of the retreat you will learn different prayer styles and forms (ways of conversation or encounter with Christ), be provided with Scripture to use in prayer, and experience a daily session with a spiritual director all rooted in the Ignatian tradition. The spiritual direction that you will receive is not counseling but is similar in that it takes place during a one-on-one conversation, and does often result in healing, growth, hope, and renewal.

The 30/30 Commitment
Each day spend 30 minutes in directed prayer as provided by your spiritual director via email, whenever works for your schedule.
From Monday to Friday, meet with your spiritual director for 30 minutes each day during one of three flexible time slots. These meetings will take place either online, at the various locations in, the Abbey House at Redeemer for Nashville attendees, or another mutually agreed upon space with your director.
We will have an online space for discussion and daily prayer prompts as additional resources for those who would like to partake.
