The Ignatian Spirituality aims to bring every person to enjoy a closer relationship with God the creator. More specifically Ignatian   Spirituality is a prayerful journeying to discover and respond to God’s will for me now, in the present.

  CIS has been active in the Maltese Province for the past 30 years. At present CIS offers an extensive yearly programme of spiritual   activities to the general public. During these last few years CIS has embarked in a formation programme to form lay and religious people   in the art of spiritual   accompaniment and retreat directing. There are some 30 people who have benefited from these courses of   formation. Now they are active in collaborating in many of the Province’s ministries.

  The Parish Ignatian Ministry (PIM) has been launched recently to offer outreach-ministry in the community. This ministry aims at giving   people a more profound experience of prayer on a one-to-one basis. PIM can also offer short and beginners training programmes on   leadership to parish operators. PIM offers the services of its ministry to the many different groups in the local settings.

  2006 unveiled a new set-up that is the Ignatian Spiritual Guides Association (ISGA). This association incorporates participants who   successfully complete the CIS formation programme or a recognised training programme in spirituality.

  CIS is also in close collaboration with the three other sectors that form the Spiritual Apostolate of the Maltese Province namely:
  Mount St Joseph Retreat House, Manresa Retreat House and The Apostleship of Prayer. CIS is also linked up with the very popular Irish   Province webpage on prayer called Sacred Space. CIS also sends out monthly an e-Newsletter via the internet.
