About this Program
We live in a turbulent time that looks first to polarize people on whatever the issue. This often leads to confusion, isolation, and conflict. Join the ISC for a day designed to help you navigate the complex world we live in and provide you with valuable tools and decision-making techniques to respond.
With a focus on Ignatian discernment, this workshop will show you how to both cope with the chaos our world presents and effectively respond to it out of a healthy sense of self and community. The day itself will intertwine spiritual understanding and experience with techniques of effective discernment and will conclude with an opportunity to put some of the day’s lessons to use in a practical way. Seasoned facilitator and Ignatian educator Matt Barmore will guide us through the day with plenty of opportunities to engage in conversation, reflection, learning, and dialogue!
This program is open to all who are seeking tools for discerning a path forward in life or seeking to go deeper in Ignatian discernment practices. All are welcome!
