The Society of Jesus in Rome has launched a video series as a companion to Fr General Arturo Sosa’s book, Walking with Ignatius.
The book, which was launched early this year, aspires to give people the hope and joy of the risen Christ, says Fr Sosa.
Every month, from September to July 2022, Father General, through a video message, will give points of reflection to help people have a prayerful experience especially this Ignatian Year.
In the pilot episode, Fr Sosa urges us to testify to others how God moves in our lives. He asks us, “Would you dare?”
“Today, in the midst of a reality that is presented as full of signs of discord and division, testimonies of profound humanity, of committed faith, and of a brotherhood capable of breaking down walls and building bridges continue to emerge,” he says.
“We know that, like St Ignatius of Loyola, there are men and women today who bear witness to the presence of God in the midst of history. Witnesses who make each simple gesture a proof that kindness and love will prevail.”
At the end of the video, Fr Sosa invites us to pray personally and as a community with the prayer points at the end of the first chapter of the book.
