NEW IN 2024: PILGRIMAGES with the Office of Ignatian Spirituality

Encountering Christ “along the road” is a hallmark of Christianity in general, and of Ignatian Spirituality in particular. Before he was a Saint or “Ignatius,” Inigo Lopez de Onaz y Loyola, the founder of the Society of Jesus was a “pilgrim.” We hope you will consider joining Fr. Hung Pham, SJ as he leads fellow pilgrims to encounter with Christ in this unique and all-encompassing experience of physical, intellectual, communal, and spiritual exercises.

1. HEALING PILGRIMAGE to VIETNAM (January 2-15, 2024) 

Visit “PAST EVENTS” to learn more about this unique and grace-filled encounter! Pictures and Letters from Pilgrim-Retreatants forthcoming.

 

2. PILGRIMAGE to the HOLY LAND (February 17 – 26, 2024) [cancelled] 

Please PRAY with us for PEACE and HEALING in the HOLY LAND.

3. IGNATIAN CAMINO for YOUNG ADULTS (June 10-22, 2024)

Desire to deepen your faith by following in the footsteps of “the Pilgrim” whose spiritual journey has been uniting people to Christ for over 500 years? Participants in this young-adult pilgrimage (22 – 40 years old) will be fully immersed in Ignatian Spirituality by physically walking through Ignatian sites in Northern Spain (Loyola, Montserrat, Manresa) and from La Storta to Rome, Italy.
