Recognizing the extremely distracting effects of having a teacher lead the daily prayer, we hereby petition that the Examen of Saint Ignatius High School be self directed, i.e. silent.
Things are officially shifting because the momentum here is honestly kind of shocking (in the best way) and makes me realize how many people were actually feeling this exact same frustration during prayer time every single day. I had no idea so many of you wanted a quiet space to think without someone talking over the silence, but here we are and it feels like people are finally ready to listen.

Finally. Its impossible to actually focus on prayer when someone else is talking the whole time.

Too many guys just mess around or ignore it because it feels like a lecture. Silent reflection is way better.
