July 31, 2020: Memorial of St. Ignatius of Loyola

Saint Ignatius of Loyola is one of my favorite saints, and has had a tremendous impact on my spiritual life.  Ignatius, as you probably know, founded the Society of Jesus, or as they are commonly known, the Jesuits.  I would not be a priest today – I would not be the person I am today – without the influence of some truly good and holy Jesuits throughout my life.  So I spent just a few minutes reflecting on him today.

Totally forgot to work today’s scripture readings into this reflection.  Pretty sure I failed to do that at Mass, too.  Oh well.
