Racism and Renewing Our Society
The Jesuit charism is to be Contemplatives in Action. Please read our statement as we hope to encourage the reader towards both contemplation and action.
Motivated by the integration of faith and justice, our programs and retreats offer formation and renewal to youth and adults, strengthen families, and build community in the Ignatian tradition.
The Best and Brightest
Inspiration from Ignatius
Ignatius knew that spiritual maturity was not about knowing theology but about engaging in a vibrant relationship with the divine:
“For it is not knowing much, but realising and relishing things interiorly, that contents and satisfies the soul.”
― Ignatius of Loyola, The Spiritual Exercises
Inspiration from Oscar
Archbishop Oscar Romero often showed that he trusted the work of the Spirit in individuals. He encouraged his faithful to trust their own experience and to act from their hearts formed by faith:
“Don’t be waiting for which way the bishop will lean, or for what others will say. Each one should be a critical man or woman. By its fruits you will know the tree. Look at what it produces and criticize it according to what it does.”
-Oscar Romero of El Salvador
