Mystic and reformer St. Teresa of Ávila struggled to connect with God during periods of her life—just like the rest of us. In this members-exclusive workshop, we’ll learn from her story, her wise teachings around the practice of prayer, and her spiritual ups and downs.
Join us as we get a little more comfortable acknowledging our own spiritual struggles and try out some new prayer techniques and spiritual practices together. Teresa was prompted to lead large-scale monastic reform after her encounters with God through prayer. What could that mean for us? How can a robust prayer life and relationship with God impact our communities, our love of neighbor, and our world?
Let’s dig into Teresa’s wisdom and prayer practices together.
What you’ll learn:
- Get to know St. Teresa as a fellow struggler, not some untouchable spiritual giant.
- Learn how her experiences and teachings might help us with our own prayer lives, deepening our daily walk with God.
- Try out new prayer techniques and see how they might just make us better neighbors.
- Engage with St. Teresa’s practical wisdom and life-changing practices alongside other leaders and learners.
