An Examen Webinar to Help You Lead Others to Find God in All Things

Exploring the Examen: A Webinar with Ignatian Friends

One of the hallmarks of Ignatian prayer and spirituality is the daily Examen—a prayerful way to review the day to recognize God’s presence and movement in our everyday lives. We tend to think of this prayer as an adult exercise; however, many catechists and school teachers have found that this prayer is easily adaptable to children and can serve as a great tool for introducing young people to the contemplative aspect of our spiritual lives. The daily Examen is one of the most powerful tools that we can use to help those we teach find God in all things.

To deepen our understanding and appreciation of the Examen prayer, Loyola Press is excited to offer this free webinar:
