DeMazenod House retreat centre by Tower Hill is presenting a day retreat exploring Ignatian inspired contemplation and meditation, followed by creative expression of poetry and a variety of artistic medium. The aim of the day is to explore a different approach to enhancing our relationship with God creatively and intuitively. <\/p>\n
St Ignatius stresses the importance of the physical senses and feelings - gifts God has given us - in tapping more deeply into our understanding of God and those deeper realities ourselves. And while Ignatian prayer is best known as the prayer of the interior imagination, of the minds eye, it can also be activated from the exterior visual sense, through art.
