Please take a moment to select "other" if you do not wish to contribute.“We travel again the path taken by Ignatius. As in his experience so too in ours, because a space of interiority is opened where God works in us, we are able to see the world as a place in which God is at work and which is full of [God’s] appeals and of [God’s] presence…. Our mode of proceeding is to trace the footprints of God everywhere, knowing that the Spirit of Christ is [already] at work in all places and situations and in all activities and meditations that seek to make Christ more present in the world” (D. 2, no. 8). -
