Reflexiones inspiradas en el fuego profético de San Alberto Hurtado, SJ. Acompáñanos en este camino cuaresmal y dejemos que el fuego de Cristo despierte nuestro Sentido Social y nos haga instrumentos de justicia y compasión.

Reflections inspired by the prophetic fire of St. Alberto Hurtado, S.J.

Join us on this Lenten journey and let the fire of Christ awaken our Social Sense and make us instruments of justice and compassion.

Our world today is groaning. Violence near and far, not to mention the more personal aches that come with being human, make this year's Lenten season feel particularly heavy. Are you longing for a rest, a reflective space where we might each take stock not only of our laments but also our hopes? Join us for a guided Ignatian Examen, written and led by Kate André. Give yourself the gift of a mid-Lenten pit stop so we can all find the nourishment we need for the road to Easter. All are welcome!
