Calendar to do the “Step by Step” Online Retreat

along with the liturgical year 2006-2007

 

You are free to do the retreat with your own pace, but if you wish you can follow this schedule.

 

First we take the steps biweekly that gives time to get familiar with the method, to experiment, to find the best place and time of the day for prayer and so on. During the holy Week we make out prayer more intense to contemplate the events of the passion and arrive to the resurrection on Easter Sunday.

The Retreat ends at Pentecost with the “Contemplation to attain the love of God” which can occupy the following weeks and brings us to the aftermath of the Exercises experience.
