The Jesuit Conference of Canada and the United States has put together a reflection to prepare for the Ignatian Year (2021-2022), which begins on May 20, 2021, the 500th anniversary of St. Ignatius Loyola being struck in the leg by a cannonball at Pamplona.

This month, Pope Francis asks us to join him in praying for those in charge of finance.

Dr. Christopher Pramuk spoke at virtual event hosted by the Jesuit Friends and Alumni Network (JFAN) on Wednesday, April 28, 2021. The topic of Dr. Pramuk’s presentation was “Stevie Wonder and the Ignatian Imagination.”

Easter, a time that calls us to rise as a new creation is so very welcomed and needed this year. We know our old sorrows have not fallen away; we may not yet have confident hearts or undoubting minds, but there are glimmers of light and signs of hope.

Fr. Joseph O'Keefe, provincial of the USA East Jesuit Province, has named Mr. Carlos Aedo to be the next Executive Director of the Office of Ignatian Spirituality (OIS). Carlos will take over from Fr. George Witt, SJ, on June 14, 2021.

This month, Pope Francis is asking us to pray for fundamental rights.

Let us rejoice in his Resurrection. And in good Ignatian fashion, let us venture forth, keeping our eyes open for signs of his loving presence and ever choosing his way over any other, Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam!

Let us spend this week with Jesus, uniting our pain and suffering with his, and leaning into his great promise of resurrection and new life.

Opportunities for prayer and reflection, and resources to help you deepen your relationship with God and accompany you on your Lenten journey.

We invite you to join us in praying the Novena of Grace of Saint Francis Xavier from March 4-12.

The new year is an opportunity to put fresh heart and mind into rebuilding better from Covid-19, even as the pandemic remains unabated. Looking back at the past year through the eyes of faith, it might be said that this pandemic year was a graced time for us in the Ignatian family to live our spirituality more fully, and to even discover surprising new horizons of its potential. What are some lessons we can learn from our experiences of responding to the pandemic…?

Fr. James Martin, SJ, spoke at the national virtual luncheon of the Jesuit Friends and Alumni Network (JFAN) on Thursday, February 18, 2021. Fr. Martin spoke about his new book, titled “Learning to Pray: A Guide for Everyone.”

In a challenging year, the members of Jesuit and Ignatian community have organized an amazing number of wonderful programs and resources for prayer, which we have compiled here. I encourage you to take a look and consider what might help you deepen your relationship with God this Lent.

Ignatian resources from OIS and our partners across the Ignatian community designed to accompany you on your spiritual journey through Lent.
