We invite you to join us on a spiritual journey from Oct 13-21, with 30 friends of America Media that will celebrate the life and spirit of St. Ignatius of Loyola. On this pilgrimage we will immerse ourselves in the adventure, the challenges and the profound experiences that were Ignatius’s life, as we visit the places important to him and his early companions.
We’ll call on some our local Society of Jesus brothers in Spain as we walk in the footsteps of Ignatius and visit Loyola, Aranzazu, Xavier, Manressa, Montserrat and Barcelona.
