Each week, Brebeuf Jesuit's Campus Ministers will provide resources for our community to connect and grow in their faith.
Hello Braves! Settle in for storytime. The
video below shares the story of St. Ignatius, founder of the Jesuits. Enjoy Audacious Ignatius, read by Director of Campus Ministry, Bree Ballard.
All done? Consider praying your own Examen by yourself or with your family. The Daily Examen is an Ignatian technique of prayerful reflection on the events of the day in order to detect God's presence and discern his direction.
You can use these guidelines:
- Become aware of God's presence.
- Give thanks/ express gratitude (name something specific).
- Review your day. What were your highs? lows?
Where did you show love?
How could you have loved better? - Ask God for the grace, or help that you might need for tomorrow.
