Rise Up: A Weekly Call to Solidarity

Start your week by asking: how can we rise up to address injustice? Every Monday morning, voices from the Ignatian network will reflect to explore response to injustice through the lens of Ignatian spirituality and previous Sunday’s daily readings. We seek to understand one another’s stories, to individually and collectively rise up to engage in the work of building a more just and peaceful world.
