Staying in the Desert: An Ignatian Lenten Retreat on Resilient Hope - given by Kevin Kelly SJ. Lent draws us into the desert—not as a place of punishment, but as a place of purification, encounter, and deeper freedom. This Ignatian retreat invites participants to receive resilience not as personal toughness or spiritual self-sufficiency, but as a Lenten grace: the capacity to remain with God in times of trial, silence, and uncertainty.
