Five hundred years ago, a cannonball changed the trajectory of millions of lives. When Ignatius of Loyola was injured during the Battle of Pamplona in 1521, he began his journey to conversion, which in turn led to the beginning of the Jesuits and Ignatian spirituality. We join the Society of Jesus and all who follow the ways of Ignatian spirituality in celebrating a special Ignatian Year, starting today.
