Resourcing Faith: Finding God in All Things

  • St Bene't's Church Bene't Street Cambridge, England, CB2 3PT United Kingdom (map)

Sister Gemma Simmonds CJ leads us on a study of Ignatian prayer and the 'Holiness of the Ordinary'.

St. Ignatius of Loyola has been called a mystic, but his spiritual teaching is eminently practical and accessible. Based on the idea of ‘finding God in all things’ it focuses on the ordinary details of human life and the ability to detect the presence of God within them. Paradoxically, this very ‘ordinary’ spiritual vision can make it harder for some people to grasp, as it does away with dualisms of every sort and invites us to believe that God is truly with us in all aspects of our experience.

Gemma Simmonds is a sister of the Congregation of Jesus, director of the Religious Life Institute at the Margaret Beaufort Institute of Theology in Cambridge, a theologian, spiritual director, author and broadcaster.

Coffee will be available from 10am.
