Magis Plus

"Magis" stands for "MORE". Based on Ignatian spirituality, we would like to try to find this "MORE" in life. To this end, we want to enter into an exchange together on current questions of faith and life.

"Seek and find God in all things" - is the central spiritual motto of Ignatius of Loyola, which invites us to take a closer look, to be open to the encounter with God in silence and in community.

We begin our evenings with a time of silence together, then enter into personal dialogue through a reflection on scripture and end with a prayer together. The scripture reflection serves as a freely organised opportunity to share thoughts, questions and doubts and to grow in faith together. ‘Magis plus’ is aimed at young adults at the beginning of their professional lives - between 25-35 years of age. Our group aims to provide an opportunity for young people to share their faith with like-minded people beyond the student programmes. We meet every Wednesday at 19:30 in the mediation room in the St. Michael Centre, Maxburgstraße 1.

Come along if you are interested in getting to know us! Please contact us in advance by e-mail (magis-sankt-michael(at)gmx.de).

 

Meditation & Contemplation

Contemplative prayer is a particular method of Christian – especially Ignatian – prayer. It focuses on the immediate dialogical relationship between the praying person and God, shaped by orientation towards Jesus Christ, "the way and the truth and the life" (John 14:6).


Spiritual Direction

For Jesuits, "spiritual direction" is an important element of living in an active relation to God. It is an offer for women and men who want to live in a more conscious and fulfilled way, who want to make "more" of their lives. Many people yearn to see God's traces in their own lives more clearly and to follow their tracks. Some may want to leave a crisis behind themselves and are searching for energy and orientation for a fresh start; others might be approaching an important decision.
