Mount Street Jesuit Centre

Application forms are now available for our 9-month Deepening Our Awareness of God Within Us. This popular course, which has been run for the past eight years under the heading of spiritual development, offers experiences of different ways of praying, reflecting and listening, so as to foster the connection between life and prayer. It will include an experience of a short one-to-one directed retreat in daily life, discernment of spirits, Christian decision-making and spiritual conversation. Generally the course will foster the spiritual life and will be based on the spirituality of St Ignatius of Loyola.

“It is not much knowledge but the inner feeling and relish of things that fills and satisfies the soul”
(St Ignatius in The Spiritual Exercises para 2)

Each two hour session of the course includes a thirty minute period of silent prayer together, followed by sharing, so it becomes a type of preached retreat in daily life.
The Course will run on:

• Tuesday daytime: 11am – 1.00pm

or

• Thursday evenings: 7.00pm – 9.00pm

The Tuesday daytime Course will begin on
September 10th September 2013
and end on July 1st 2014.

The Thursday evening Course will begin on
September 12th 2013
and end on July 3rd 2014.

In addition, there will be three Saturday sessions
11am-4pm, one in each term.

The Centre needs to break even over all its courses and activities. Whilst wanting all our activities to be open to everyone regardless of their financial circumstances, we have calculated that on average it costs £25 to run a one day workshop, and £10 for an evening course per head. These monies go towards the running costs of the Centre: salaries, overheads, rent, facilitators. We would be grateful if our participants would bear these figures in mind when considering what donation they should make. We are especially grateful to a small number of particularly generous donors who have subsidised our activities to date. Cheques should be made payable to ‘Mount Street Jesuit Centre’. Please only make the donation which you can afford – you are welcome just the same.

Events occurring in the next 3 months are shown here. For a full list of events this academic year see the events page.
