John - Learn what the network has been up to and join the Ignatian family for IFTJ 2023!
John,
Welcome to this issue of Faith Meets Justice! Before we jump into this month's dynamic content, we want to remind you that all are welcome at the Ignatian Family Teach-In for Justice ([link removed]) , the country's largest Catholic social justice gathering, held in Washington, D.C. from October 28-30. Don't miss your chance to lock in early bird rates by registering and submitting payment ([link removed]) by this Monday, June 12.
Nearly halfway through the year, we are grateful for the progress the Ignatian family is making towards a more just world. In this issue of Faith Meets Justice, watch the remarks from our recent Ignite awards ([link removed]) , read about the Jesuit Migration Network meeting ([link removed]) and new initiatives at Loyola Marymount University ([link removed]) and Xavier University ([link removed]) , and reflect on considerations for immersion learning ([link removed]) and
happiness and The Little Mermaid ([link removed]) .
Thank you for being a part of our network striving towards "a faith that does justice!"
Peace,
[link removed] G. Kerr
Executive Director
P.S. Keep an eye out for ISN's social media channels each Thursday! We will be livestreaming highlights from past Teach-In keynotes!

Now Discern This: Little Mermaid, Big Problems ([link removed])
------------------------------------------------------------
