Ignatian Contemplation is prayer with Scripture. Ignatius was convinced that God can speak to us as surely through our imagination as through our thoughts and memories. This very active way of praying engages the mind and heart and stirs up thoughts and emotions as you “live into” a Scripture story letting the Spirit guide the prayer with all your senses and imagination. Today’s presentation will include background material and opportunities for the practice of imaginative prayer as well as discussion.    Fee:  $50

Facilitator:   Michael Jennings, Ph.D. holds a doctorate in clinical psychology and is the conserve for the Chicago area lay Ignatian community. He has studied and written about Ignatian spirituality for over a decade and is an Ignatian spiritual director.
