FAITH MEETS JUSTICE:
News and Voices from the Ignatian Network
John -


In this unprecedented time of isolation and illness, we find ourselves in the midst of Holy Week, the most sacred series of days in our Catholic faith tradition.

During this time when we are unable to gather together with family, friends, and our faith communities to mark these days, we at the Ignatian Solidarity Network (ISN) are finding light in the ways that the Ignatian family is still able to virtually gather and take action for those most vulnerable.

During Holy Week, we invite you to be with our network in spirit. Below, find resources for prayer, reflection, and action to help enrich your week. You can find many of these items and more on our page, Coronavirus Resources: Responding in Prayer, Reflection, and Solidarity

We particularly invite you to TAKE ACTION, calling on to Congress to act on behalf of the most vulnerable in our midst—people in our prisons, migrants, low-income communities, and communities of color which already bear the burden of poor environmental and health conditions.

Finally, if you'd like to share news or a reflection on your own or your community's faith and justice response to COVID-19, please submit a brief summary of your idea


Please know that you and your community are in the prayers of the ISN staff during this Holy Week, the Easter holiday, and throughout this challenging time. 

Peace, 

Christopher Kerr
Executive Director
