JustFaith Informational Meeting
Time: Monday, September 13 at 6:00 pm
Location: Parish Lounge
Our Catholic faith and Biblical tradition extend an extraordinary invitation to each of us and our faith communities to become agents of God’s compassion and healing in a wounded world. The Good News of Christ is both a comfort and a promise for the poor and, at the same time, a call to those of us who are not poor to be linked with God’s vision of justice and reconciliation.
JustFaith, a thirty-week adult formation program, offers an opportunity for parishioners to experience a spiritual journey into compassion. The 2010-2011 St. Ignatius JustFaith program meets weekly on Monday evenings. It will begin on September 27th and will end on May 16th.
Please join us on September 13th to learn more about JustFaith. RSVP by calling the Parish House (212-288-3588) and leaving your name and phone number.
Rome and the Vatican and How They Define the Roman Catholic Church
Location: Parish House
A colloquium conducted by Fr. James Dugan, SJ
Wednesdays, September 15th through October 27th
7:00 – 8:30 PM - Parish House
Participants will be invited to engage in informal conversation with the group leader and one another in order to articulate contemporary relevant questions and responses which relate to these historical, cultural, spiritual and geo-political realities.
Some of the areas for consideration will be how Rome developed as an empire and eventually became the cradle of Christianity, the roots of the rise of the Italian State and its relationship to the Roman Catholic Church, and how Vatican City (which was established through the Lateran Treaty in 1929) represents the Holy See .
Register by emailing Fr. Dugan (duganj@saintignatiusloyola.org) or calling the Parish House (212-288-3588).
Please note that the group will be limited to 12 participants.
