Ronald Rolheiser\, OMI \nScripture tells us that\, as he grew\, John the Baptist “grew strong in spirit.” What if you are the type of person who is “accommodating in spirit”?

How can your quiet gifts challenge the world and the church to be more just\, loving\, and faith-filled? Is there another kind of “protest” that is powerfully prophetic? \nIf you are unable to join us in person\, you may view the livestream by clicking here. \nAbout the Speaker\nFr.

James F. Keenan\, S.J. \n\nThis talk suggests that longstanding “conscience formation programs” are not all that successful unless they help us first to cultivate the capacities to be vulnerable to one another and to recognize the other\, often overlooked. My thesis is that\, until there’s vulnerability and the willingness to recognize\, there isn’t much capacity to be a person of conscience. \n\nAbout the Speaker: Internationally renowned Moral Theologian and Bioethicist\, Vice Provost for Global Engagement\, Canisius Professor and Director of The Jesuit Institute at Boston College\, Father Keenan is the author of numerous books and essays\, including Moral Wisdom: Lessons and Texts from the Catholic Tradition. \n\nClick here to register for the webinar. \n\nThe 2022 Lectures at St. Ignatius series has been generously underwritten by an anonymous donor.

Engaging community members in this process has proved especially critical during the pandemic when seeking health care might itself be a source of risk. Finding ways to reduce the risk of Coronavirus spreading while still promoting the most basic health services that each year prevent the deaths of thousands of women and children around the world has created an unprecedented challenge. Community-based approaches are valuable and the strengthening of clinics and hospitals is still a necessary component of life-saving solutions. \nTo register\, click here. \n\n \n \n \n \n Moderator: Jana I.
