Madonna Della Strada Award Ceremony

Madonna Della Strada

The Madonna Della Strada award is named after Sancta Maria Della Strada, the first church that St. Ignatius and the early Jesuits obtained to serve the urban poor in the center of Rome. The award honors lives that reflect the Ignatian values of direct service to the poor, and of working and educating for a more just society. This is the fourth year that IVC New England has hosted a Madonna Della Strada Ceremony.
