January 25 to March 1

During these challenging days, we invite our parents, alums, and graduate parents to make time for prayer and community.

Using the Zoom platform we will meet once a week for meaningful prayer, reflection, and small group conversation.
Space is limited and registration is required.

Faith and Culture in Conversation Speaker Series: Surprised by God
In the middle of this winter's darkness and social distance, we might find it hard to recognize God in our midst. But our next guest speaker will argue that God is always present in our lives and refining our skills of reflection is one critical way to attune our hearts to God’s presence. In 2014, Pope Francis said, "Our God is a God of surprises..." With this in mind, Christina Zaker will guide us to reflect on God's movement in our lives. Drawing from the wisdom of the parables, she will encourage us to recognize God's surprising nearness, explore what that nearness means and what it demands of us as Christians. Our evening together will include time for conversation, reflection and shared wisdom that encourages each of us to ask, as Pope Francis suggests, "Am I open to a God of Surprises?" More information is available here. -

Parents, graduate parents, faculty, staff, alumni and friends of Loyola are invited to take advantage of this forced pause in the middle of the week. We will look back on the week—rummaging through the "stuff" of our lives—to explore how and where God has been present. No conversation or sharing—just 15 minutes of quiet reflection in the company of others.

Ashes will also be distributed during the first 15 minutes of each lunch period in the Chapel. Due to COVID-19, we are following the rubrics provided by the Vatican. Ashes will be sprinkled on each person's head. The formula found in the Roman Missal— "Repent, and believe in the Gospel" or "Remember that you are dust, and to dust you shall return"—will not be spoken.
Students who are not in the building on Ash Wednesday are encouraged to receive ashes at their local parishes. -
