An initiative of the Christian Life Community in Poland. During four weeks participants will listen to conferences and meditation introductions, broadcasted three times a day on the waves of Radio Warszawa.

The inaugural Mass was celebrated in the sanctuary of St. Andrew Bobola and presided by the programme director of the radio station, Fr Mariusz Wedziuk.

He encouraged the participants of the retreat, according to the teaching of St. Ignatius Loyola to enter the time of spiritual exercises with generosity and magnanimity, allowing themselves to be guided by God. The purpose of the retreat is our conversion, which has to consist in an ever deeper dedication to Jesus, in adhering to his person," He pointed out that the right attitude of heart of the person who enters the time of Ignatian exercises is also a valuable help. Let this generosity be expressed in giving the Lord full trust in his past, present and future," encouraged Radio Warszawa.

In his homily, Father Adam Schulz, the ecclesiastical assistant of the Community of Christian Life,

pointed out that every good is a fruit of God's action in man. Our good intentions and efforts are not enough. The need to cooperate with the Holy Spirit," he pointed out.

Fr. Schulz SJ pointed to Ignatius retreats as an effective tool for organizing one's interior in order to get to know God and His guidance better. We know the doctrine, we know the teachings of the Church, but it is an art to be able to embody what we know in life. So we all need to learn: How does God guide me in loving others? What expression should shape have the goodness that is to be expressed in my life?

He emphasized that the Holy Spirit is very creative in his actions, hence the need to be able to discern. He is not an automaton, but he guides us in a different way every day," said Fr. Schulz.

This year, the main idea of the spiritual exercises are the words "If you want to find a source" - taken from the triptych of St. John Paul II.
