A new call to draw inspiration from Ignatius
31 July – Feast of Saint Ignatius
“Remembering St. Ignatius of Loyola and celebrating his feast gives us a chance to share some reflections on the Ignatian year that begins next May. (…)
The Ignatian year is a new call to draw inspiration from Ignatius, the Pilgrim. His inner struggle and conversion led him to a very close familiarity with God. This intense love, allowed him to find God in all things. (…) We are heirs to that charism and responsible for its legitimacy in the times we live in.
Excerpt from the message of Fr. Arturo Sosa, Superior General, for the feast of St. Ignatius on 31 July 2020.
