Spirituality Resources from the Ignatian Family

The Spiritual Exercises began as notes that St. Ignatius kept as he talked to men and women about their experience in prayer and their struggles to make good decisions based on that prayer. Over the centuries, Jesuits have published an incredible variety of books, guides and pamphlets to help people learn how to pray in an Ignatian manner. Today the web and app stores offer a new approach to this great spiritual tradition of aids to prayer.
