Virtual Ignatian Family Teach-In, Honoring Faith and Justice Leaders, Voting as an Act of Love, and more!
John -
Next month, the Ignatian family will gather for the first virtual Ignatian Family Teach-In for Justice ([link removed][UNIQID]) (IFTJ), continuing our work for a more just world.
This year's IFTJ theme, Prophetic Resilience: Breaking Down, Building Up, speaks directly to our times—and the resilience our network has tapped into in 2020 to continue to teach, minister, serve, and accompany in our work for justice, even in the midst of the realities of living through a global pandemic.
Registration ([link removed][UNIQID]) and speaker applications ([link removed][UNIQID]#opportunities) are open now for IFTJ. With tracks for students, professionals, and content designed for people of all ages, we're certain that you'll find strength and renewed resilience at this year's Teach-In.
Finally, we invite you this fall to prepare for election 2020 by joining the Voting is an Act of Love ([link removed][UNIQID]) campaign, care for creation through the Season of Creation Challenge: Daily Habits for a Healthy Planet ([link removed][UNIQID]) , and to join us as we honor Fr. John Baumann, S.J., and Sr. Simone Campbell, S.S.S., at the virtual Ignite: A Celebration of Justice. ([link removed][UNIQID])
