Ignatian resources for Lent 2021

During Lent, USA East Jesuit Provincial Fr. Joseph O’Keefe, SJ has called each Jesuit to pray and reflect deeply on racial justice and equity work. We are asked to examine our conscience, no matter where we are in our lives and ministries, confront the reality of racism, and ask how is God calling us to respond? We invite colleagues and friends to join us in this time of prayer, reflection and action. Let us ask God for the grace and conversion to more deeply understand and work against racism in our hearts, in our community, and in our ministries.
