Resources
There are many Ignatian Resources available to help you deepen your prayer, experience a retreat, or learn more about Ignatian spirituality. Here are some of our favorite resources:
IgnatianSpirituality.com is a service of Loyola Press and a ministry of the Chicago Province. It offers information on Ignatian spirituality from Jesuit and Ignatian sources around the world. They offer a wealth of articles and videos and links to pathways for exploring the spiritual life.
Ignatian Solidarity Network is an excellent resource for those seeking to move from contemplative prayer to action for peace, social justice and care for our common home. It offers many ways to engage in efforts to seek positive change as an extension of one’s deeper desire to more fully live a “faith that does justice.”
Located close to the campus of Boston College, St. Ignatius of Loyola Parish is blessed with easy access to events and resources sponsored by the university. The Center for Ignatian Spirituality offers events and the Spiritual Exercises Retreat in Daily Life that is open to parishioners. CIS also offers Prayers at the Center which is offered at noontime during the liturgical season of Advent.
Crossroads is a program of Boston College School of Theology and Ministry, and offers non-credit online courses for adult spiritual enrichment and faith formation. With a focus on shared reflection in an online learning community, Crossroads models the kind of conversation and participation that lead to deeper understanding of and personal growth in faith.
The Church in the 21st Century (C21) Center at Boston College is a catalyst and resource for the renewal of the Catholic Church in the United States. The C21 Center engages in critical conversations facing the Catholic community focusing on four critical issues: handing on the faith, roles and relationships in the Church, sexuality in the Catholic tradition, and the Catholic intellectual tradition.
