Ignatian Murmuration – 3 day Online International Conference
On 12-14 May 2022, Jesuit and Ignatian Spirituality Australia is offering a transformative conference to celebrate the 500th anniversary of the conversion of St Ignatius Loyola.
This three-day conference will be an Ignatian murmuration, a series of spiritual conversations using the Spiritual Field Hospital exercises of Michael Hansen SJ during Covid, to make connections with Ignatius in his interior journey of receiving new life in Christ. Receive new life yourself. And do it in enjoyable company.

A Dated View of Mission? Jules Chevalier (1824-1907)
The linking of ‘mission’ and ‘devotion’ today would probably seem outlandish to many with a risk of tying it to some time-bound piety. Chevalier sensed part of this difficulty when he refrained from speaking of devotion to the Sacred Heart as ‘a devotion’, preferring to see it as a summary of Christianity itself. Mission is not merely a matter of spreading information; nor merely a matter of something we do for others; it is something we are.

Spirituality of the Heart: Responsibility & Vulnerability
December is an important month as we celebrate that our life in Christ begins with the Incarnation. It also marks the beginning of our own history as Missionaries of the Sacred Heart. The responsibility of continuing to add to this extensive missionary energy, is in the hands of every MSC alive today. We celebrate with great joy and gratitude this fact that God loves us. This love empowers in us the responsibility and vulnerability of giving our lives for others.
