Within a matter of days the Lenten season will once again be upon us with its fastings, disciplines, and sacrifices! A time for war... a war against self and all that seeks to ruin our souls. It is thus that we once again present new episodes of The Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius.
Over the coming weeks, Father will guide our listeners further through the first portion of the Ignatian Retreat. It is our sincere hope that this series will be of benefit for you during this Lenten season and help you to make this the best Lent yet!
All of the most recent episodes of our programming are accessible only by our Monthly and Annual members. This enables us here at True Restoration to continue
both our work and our support of the clergy. Please consider joining to hear episodes of Progress in Prayer as they are released by becoming a member today!
Join Father Trauner on this Ignatian Retreat with The Spiritual Exercises!
