Celebrate the Ignatian Year!
Jesuit and Ignatian Spirituality Australia invites you to Erromeria – an online festive pilgrimage to celebrate the Ignatian Year.
The Ignatian Year is a celebration to commemorate 500 years since the conversion of St Ignatius in 2021, and 400 years since his canonisation in 2022.
Erromeria is Basque for a ‘festive pilgrimage’ and Ignatius came from the Basque region of Spain.
Celebrate the gifts of Ignatius’ life and spirituality through a series of stories about key stages and turning points of Ignatius’ life, and the relevance of this to our lives, places, and times, including questions to reflect upon for our own lives.
Also part of our Erromeria celebration are some retreats you can make with us:
It is with thanks to the voices of JISA – Spiritual Directors and Givers of the Spiritual Exercises in all their forms – who have come together to create contributions for our Erromeria Ignatian Year celebration!
