What is a directed retreat? A directed retreat is a personally guided prayer experience in which the retreatant follows the dynamics of the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius while listening for God's personal word spoken through Sacred Scriptures. It is an opportunity to focus on one's personal relationship with God, particularly one's prayer life, as well as one's relationship with others. Each retreatant is assigned a director with whom the retreatant meets daily for reflection and spiritual discernment. SILENCE, both interior and exterior, is a necessary condition for the effectiveness of a directed retreat.
