News and Other Stories from OIS
In this "Fordhamtastic" episode, we bring together staff and students who are engaged in Ignatian retreat ministry: Stephanie Roddy, Director of Spiritual Retreat Ministries, Fordham University; Laura Oldfather, Catholic Life Assistant, Fordham University; Kaitlyn Squyres, Fordham University. Roddy, Laura, and Kaitlyn share about how Ignatian Spirituality helps them find God on and off-campus, amidst work as a coach, on the subway commute, and even in academic studies and research. They share tidbits on how to discern so that we know that God is present in these aspects of life. They also talk about how Ignatius is relatable to them as young adults. We land on a slogan of a Fordham favorite pizza joint: love is it, and God's love can lead someone to give up watching hockey, and to grow in authentic love of God, neighbor, and self. Listen now.

Reflexiones inspiradas en el fuego profético de San Alberto Hurtado, SJ. Acompáñanos en este camino cuaresmal y dejemos que el fuego de Cristo despierte nuestro Sentido Social y nos haga instrumentos de justicia y compasión.
Reflections inspired by the prophetic fire of St. Alberto Hurtado, S.J.
Join us on this Lenten journey and let the fire of Christ awaken our Social Sense and make us instruments of justice and compassion.
Our world today is groaning. Violence near and far, not to mention the more personal aches that come with being human, make this year's Lenten season feel particularly heavy. Are you longing for a rest, a reflective space where we might each take stock not only of our laments but also our hopes? Join us for a guided Ignatian Examen, written and led by Kate André. Give yourself the gift of a mid-Lenten pit stop so we can all find the nourishment we need for the road to Easter. All are welcome!
