For almost five hundred years, the little book The Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius Loyola has been an important source for Christian prayer-life. However, many Church ministers (priests, deacons, religious, and laypersons) do not have the time to make the full thirty-day Ignatian retreat with a spiritual director. This helpful resource seeks to lead a retreatant prayerfully into the heart of an Ignatian retreat by using contemplations and themes from the Spiritual Exercises as well as other meditations on the life of Jesus-but within an eight-day time frame. With a particular focus on ministry, both ordained and nonordained, the short chapters present mysteries from the life of Jesus and considerations that correspond to the dynamics of the Exercises. They represent a preparation for prayer, not to instruct but to move the imagination and hopefully the heart. An appendix offers additional scriptural texts. An 8 Day Ignatian Retreat for Priests, Religious, Deacons, and Lay Ministers enables busy and hardworking Church ministers to apply the Ignatian insights to their own interior life, which will result in rejuvenation and growth in their pastoral ministry.

Excerpt from The Spiritual Exercises of an Eight Days Retreat But few people in the world understand what a spiritual retreat means. To separate one's self from family, friends and business in order to treat with God in holy solitude on the affairs of eternity, on the world which is to come, seems to the majority of men useful at most for religious. Have, then, people of the world not to think of religious truths? Are these subjects for the devout only? Can a man of the world say, "I am perfect, what more do you want of me?" Well, suppose he might say so: this conclusion would only be the result of a serious self-consideration. Now this serious self-consideration of one's soul is the work, the object of a spiritual retreat. Is it asking even the business man too much to lay aside for a few days his daily cares to settle the only necessary affair for which alone he is in the world; to see to and consider his eternal interests? Moreover, will not our very temporal affairs draw profit from the retreat? Is it not true that patience, freedom of mind, and self-control are great elements of success? Are there not moments in the lives of business men, when there is the greatest need of resignation and courage in order to avoid falling into despair? This courage, this confiding hope is the fruit of a spiritual retreat. It is true, we have at times in parishes the ordinary public mission exercises - excellent indeed as far as they go. But are the fruits thereof complete? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Although this book is intended for Jesuits, all Christians can benefit from the Spiritual Exercises of Saint Ignatius. The original exercises are meant for a month long retreat. By being reorganized for eight days, more people can take advantage of these holy exercises. The Text of the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius, as translated into English from the Spanish Autograph, and edited for private circulation by Rev. John Morris, S. J., is printed in a small volume of only 125 pages. That little work contains all that the Saint composed in the Grotto of Manresa, and he never afterward wrote any additions to the text. But in explaining his Exercises to his first companions, and to others who made the retreat under his direction, he would adapt the details to their characters and the various circumstances. His followers did the same, without writing further additions or commentaries on the original text; they followed in their practice the traditional method as it had come to them from Their saintly founder. In the course of time, as was natural, considerable departures from the first process took place, some of which induced the danger of gradually losing the very spirit of the original Exercises. Among the learned men of our Society who labored most successfully to check such tendency, one of the most distinguished was the Father General John Roothaan, who in 1834 addressed a circular letter to all his subject, earnestly warning them against this peril. At the same time he furnished them a masterly work on the original Spanish and Latin texts, which he accompanied with a most valuable commentary. For those preferring a Latin guide book, whether in making the Exercises themselves, or in explaining them to others, no work is more commendable than that masterpiece of Father Roothaan. Still, both before and since its publication, many other editions of the Exercises and commentaries on the same have been printed, both in Latin and in various modern languages, with full approbation and warm commendations of the Superiors of the Society; and excellent reasons appear to exist why successive generations of Jesuits should continue their efforts to enrich this valuable literature. In particular the eight days retreat, which all our members perform every year, gains additional interest and impressiveness when a wider range is presented, affording a choice among a large number of approved guide books to direct them through this fertile region of spirituality. The spirit permeating all of these must ever be the same, so too the main outline of the truths proposed and the general plan of the Exercises. Yet experience shows that there remains a wide room for variety in comments, suggestions and practical applications. Therefore, when the time for each one's annual retreat comes round, there is shown by many Fathers an earnest desire for some late publication on the subject, that will lend new zest to the familiar solid doctrine. To satisfy such reasonable wishes is the chief reason why the present pages are modestly presented to his brethren by THE AUTHOR

Excerpt from An Eight Days' Retreat for Religious Owing to a variety of circumstances it not seldom happens that a religious is unable to make the yearly retreat under a competent director with the rest of the community. In the majority of such cases the only alternative is to make the retreat by oneself, as best one may with the assistance of some standard commentary on the Spiritual Exercises of St. Igna tius. But as a rule these commentaries are found to be hardly adapted to this object. They are intended rather for the use of retreat-masters to help them bring out the profound doctrine, the logical sequence, and the lofty inspiration of the golden treatise left us by St. Ignatius Loyola.
