Ignatian Yoga Summer 2018 Newsletter

Ignatian Yoga Newsletter Summer 2018

     "The world is charged with the grandeur of God." - Gerard Manley Hopkins
              

Dear friends of Ignatian Yoga,

We hope you are having a fun filled summer! 2018 has been an exciting and active year for Ignatian Yoga!

Some of the highlights:
  • 3 sold out weekend retreats: Ossining, NY, Milford, OH, and Parma, OH
  • Workshops at Boston College and the College of the Holy Cross
  • Strategic planning at the Jesuits Midwest Province in Chicago, IL
We've met some wonderful people along the journey and are slowly expanding our network of teachers and partner organizations.

As we move into Fall, Ignatian Yoga will be slowing down it's offerings as Alan and Bobby both go back to graduate school. Alan will be studying Social Work at Wayne State University in Detroit, MI, and Bobby will be studying Theology at the Jesuit School of Theology in Berkeley, CA, for his final three years of priestly formation.

Ignatian Yoga has been very blessed with support from the Jesuit Midwest Province and from the many of you who make our offerings possible. As we trust in the slow work of God, we are very consoled with the graces we have received, and are excited to bring to life so many visions for the future!

Here's What You Have to Say:

We continue to be humbled and inspired by your feedback! Read what some of our participants had to say about their recent weekend retreats:

"This was a meaningful retreat in which I gained insight into myself; I now reflect on how God has and does guide me (how I 'listen to God'). The retreat has made me more accepting of myself and to celebrate my uniqueness!"

"It was one of the most inspiring and meaningful things I have done for myself."

"The Ignatian Yoga retreat provided an opportunity to experience the synthesis of two spiritual traditions that complement each other perfectly. My faith deepened and I gained clarity on an important question while staying physically active during the weekend."

"I would recommend this to anyone and everyone. I've never done anything like this before and I really enjoyed the balance of learning (about Ignatian spirituality), Yoga practice, quiet/meditation, relaxation, time to socialize, etc. After this experience Yoga means something different to me. There is an element of prayer and reflection in my practice. As a graduate of a Jesuit school I appreciated reconnecting with the spiritual exercises."
