The Saturday Examen

Welcome to the Saturday Examen

As you enter into prayer today, take a moment to notice how you are feeling… how are you in your body….? In your mind…? In your heart….?

Become aware of the presence of God with you now…God sanctifies this place and makes it holy… Breathe in God’s love for you now….and breathe out anything heavy you might be carrying today…

What stands out to you as you reflect over the week? What naturally arises?… perhaps a moment? Or a place? A conversation you had with someone…

Why does this stand out to you particularly? Does it bring you a lightness or a heaviness of heart? Does it stir joy and life in you, or draw you downwards or into darkness?

What do you sense God is wanting to show you about this memory? Take a moment now to notice what comes…

You might like to spend these last few moments responding to God in whatever way you would like to… Perhaps take a moment to ask for anything you might need in the week ahead…

Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
