This week, ISN invites you to join a virtual Ignatian Prayer Vigil for Lamentation and Racial Justice on the one month anniversary of the killing of George Floyd on Thursday, June 25 from 8-9 PM ET. Members of the Ignatian family will gather virtually for shared prayer across our network to lament and commemorate the Black lives that have been lost due to police brutality and white supremacy in the United States.

FEATURED EVENTS

An Ignatian Prayer Vigil for Lamentation and Racial Justice

Thursday, June 25 8PM ET
During the prayer vigil, anonymous lamentations from across the network will be shared to illuminate the many emotions people are feeling in this present moment. We invite you to use this form to share a lamentation. Several of the lamentations submitted will be shared during the prayer service, and there will be a moment in which we silently uplift all of the stories that were submitted but not read out loud.
