Loyola Lenten Series: Reconciliation with God and Neighbor

Reconciliation is central to Ignatian spirituality.

It is the only Sacrament explicitly named in one of the Jesuits'听. Jesuit Superior General Fr. Arturo Sosa linked reconciliation and universities in a 2018 speech.听And it was a key theme at the听Jesuits' 2019听.

Loyola's Lenten Series reflects this Ignatian commitment. The series explores the place of reconciliation in Ignatian spirituality and what it means for our own lives and in relationship to others.听

Presentations take place at 7:00 p.m. CST in Loyola's Ignatius Chapel in Bobet Hall (#3 on the听, on the first floor on the Calhoun St. side of Bobet)听and on Zoom. You only need to register if you want to attend on Zoom. Refreshments will be served after each.听These presentations are free and open to the public with free parking available in West Road Garage (#13 on the听).听
