Welcome to the Saturday Examen.


On Saturday we like to look prayerfully and reflectively back at what we have done during this week, both our activities and our praying, to get used to seeing where God has been.


Take some time becoming still…or if you’re walking, simply become attentive and aware of the presence of God wherever you are…


Begin to reflect on three things, possibly, but not necessarily, three moments in prayer, when you felt the touch of God this week. These could also be things such as an object…a moment or a conversation… notice what arises for you naturally.. Hold them in prayer gently and thankfully…


Now think of just two things for which you would like to tell God that you are sorry. Notice what arises and hold them gently before God.


Finally think of just one thing that you are being challenged to work on in the coming week. And ask for God’s help.

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.
