This weekend we join Jesuit communities around the world in reconsecrating our lives, our work, and our Parish to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. During Mass, the presider will offer a prayer written by Servant of God Fr. Pedro Arrupe, S.J. in 1972, and we will respond with the Suscipe, the response to God's love with which St. Ignatius ends the Spiritual Exercises. During this prayer, we offer all that God has given us back to God in love and gratitude.

New research in April by the Pew Research Center recently found that about 40 percent of Catholics continue to watch Mass online, despite a recent lifting of mask mandates and other loosening restrictions around Covid-19. This statistic tracks closely with our own data about livestream attendance here at St. Ignatius Parish. For most, it’s been a wonderful, even radical, experiment. My guess, though, is that many have also experienced a sense of frustration or disappointment at times – both technologically and and spiritually.
