Welcome to spiritual-exercises.org!

 

All the materials on this website are designed to help you promote the Spiritual Exercises, one of the universal apostolic preferences of the Society of Jesus. I think they are a great resource for anyone working for mission and identity in a Jesuit institution.

 

Any form of non-commercial use of the film, trailers, photos etc. and all materials on www.ignatius-godseeker.org and www.spiritual-exercises.org is permitted. This includes downloading. If you have any questions, please contact Fr. Christof Wolf SJ, chwolf"at"jesuits.net. If possible, please indicate copyright: Loyola Productions Munich.

 

God bless you and thank you for supporting our mission!
