The Ignatian Tradition

Ignatian Spirituality is best summed up in one phrase—Finding God in All Things. It invites us to search for and find God in every circumstance of life, not just in explicitly religious situations or activities.

Ignatian Spirituality

  • stresses freedom, need for discernment and responsible action
  • gives ample scope to imagination and emotion as well as intellect
  • empowers people to become leaders in service, men and women for and with others, building a more just and humane world.
