The Blog Begins

Welcome to Taking the Exercises to the World Blog!

I've been thinking for a long time that this website needs a place where people who are involved in the Exercises can ask questions, discuss issues, and talk to one another. So here it is - the Spiritual Exercises Blogspot. I hope you will ask questions and become involved.

It seems to me that the Spirit is moving and using the Exercises to touch people all over the world. I have been in contact with a woman in Croatia who is providing the Sprititual Exercises for over 800 people! In Oregon, a Franciscan priest is providing the Exercises for his parish, and it is renewing and renovating the congregation in amazing ways.

I believe that the Exercises can change the world, and I thank the Jesuits for providing this gift to the laity and to the broader Church. It is truly an amazing gift.

Let me know your thoughts on this. I'm looking forward to hearing from you.
