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
Grant me, O Lord, to see everything now with new eyes,
to discern and test the spirits
that help me read the signs of the times,
to relish the things that are yours, and to communicate them to others.
Give me the clarity of understanding that you gave Ignatius.
—Pedro Arrupe, SJ (Superior General of the Jesuits 1965-83)
Inspiration from Oscar
“We cannot separate God’s word from the historical reality in which it is proclaimed…
It is God’s word because it enlightens, contrasts, repudiates,
praises what is going on today in this society.”
- St. Óscar Romero
