Consolation & Desolation, May 2023

“… endow us with his very Spirit, who takes away everything that estranges us from one another.” – Eucharistic Prayer for Reconciliation II

Desolation

Sorrow at the passing of former Jesuit Vincent Quayle, who worked for decades on behalf of racial justice.

Consolation

Inspiring news from our neighbors in the USA Central & Southern Province, who recently debuted a retreat for educators of color in Jesuit schools.

This month’s reflection was provided by Sean Toole, SJ, of the Federal Bureau of Prisons in Estill, S.C. If you would like to volunteer to provide next month’s reflection, please contact Sean: stoole@jesuits.org.
