I will be leading the Spiritual Exercises of St Ignatius (Ignatian Exercises) this year starting with the first group meeting the Last week of September. Groups will meet by Zoom unless you want to join in person in San Francisco. Warm-up prayers will begin in August. You can read more about the Exercises here or find further details in my flyer.

“I cannot recommend the Ignatian Exercises enough. The months of doing the Ignatian Exercises with Dale and my cohort were some of the most rich and growth-filled months of my life. The Exercises as Dale leads them are an unforced rhythm of grace, a patient habit that bears fruit over time, a discipline of devotion. I highly recommend this experience to anyone who is even slightly considering it. -Emily Moss”

For the nine group meetings, I plan to have two separate groups. Exact dates and times to be determined at the end of August with those who have committed at that point.

Here are the weeks of the group meetings.
