    NOVENA TO OUR LADY OF THE WAY SAINT JOHN’S CHURCH AT CREIGHTON UNIVERSITY WEEK 1: APRIL 22 – 29, 2020 A 33-DAY NOVENA TO OUR LADY OF THE WAY: OUR OFFERING TO OUR LADY Introduction There are times when we feel a great need for a prolonged period of prayer. Frequently this arises from interior crisis or experiences of conversion. Throughout history, during times of turmoil in the human community, it has been common for entire communities to undertake acts of prayer and devotion for the common good. In this time of pandemic and social distance, the people of St. John’s Parish will undertake a 33-day Novena in honor of Our Lady of the Way (Madonna della Strada) to ask for Mary’s protection on our community and all who participate in this novena. Ignatius and Our Lady For Ignatius, the veneration of the Blessed Virgin Mary was an essential part of his spirituality. At crucial points in his life, Ignatius had recourse to her intercession. During his conversion, Mary appeared to him and had a powerful impact on his soul. At the shrine of Arantzazu, he took a vow of chastity. At the Shrine of Montserrat, he held a vigil and laid his sword before Our Lady. At Montmartre in Paris, Ignatius and his first companions took their first vows on the Feast of the Assumption. After the approval of the Society, the first profession of solemn vows was celebrated at Our Lady’s altar in the Basilica of St. Paul Outside the Walls in Rome.

Excel – Dr. Paul Gnirk (MinE59), and other alumni, Larry Pearson (ME72), Jeane (CE77) and John Hull (MinE77), and Dr. Scott Kenner (CE77), clearly excel on so many levels. Dr. Umesh Korde, the Pearson Chair in Mechanical Engineering (ME), featured in this issue, and his faculty colleagues excel and share their successes with our students and others globally. Innovate – Drs. Kyle Riley and Charles Tolle, as well as several other faculty, including Robert A. Wharton, PhD, Drs. Foster Sawyer (GEOL90) and Carter Kerk, and Shashi Kanth (M.S.

Veteran student, Ryan Brown, and 2012 graduates Andrew Muxen (ME10) and Anthony Kulesa (CE12), as President well as the Mines Team India, capture the spirit of innovation along with others noted here. Contribute – Mines alumnus, Larry, and Linda Pearson’s funding of the endowed ME chair, the Hulls’ professorship in Mining Engineering, and others who make generous contributions to the Building the Dream campaign contribute the fiscal capacity to enhance the quality of teaching and research at Mines, affording greater opportunities to attract and retain highly qualified students and faculty.

This October, we traveled to Rome with Jesuits from all over the world for the Society of Jesus’ 36th General Congregation (GC36). This historic meeting was the 36th time the global Society has come together since the first General Congregation in 1558, nearly two years after St. Ignatius died. General Congregations are always summoned upon the death or resignation of the Jesuits’ Superior General, and this year we came together to elect a Jesuit to succeed Fr. Adolfo Nicolás, SJ, who has faithfully served as Superior General since 2008. After prayerful consideration, we elected Fr. Arturo Sosa Abascal, SJ, a Jesuit priest from Venezuela. Father Sosa is warm, friendly, and down-to-earth, with a great sense of humor that puts people at ease. He has offered his many gifts to intellectual, educational, and social apostolates at all levels in service to the Gospel and the universal Church. One of his most impressive achievements came during his time as rector of la Universidad Católica del Táchira, where he helped the student body grow from 4,000 to 8,000 students and gave the university a strong social orientation to study border issues in Venezuela. The Jesuits in Venezuela have deep love and respect for Fr.

Arrival Date: 02/11/2004 O'Neill Current Periodicals 55/5 NOVEMBER 2003 THE SEMINAR ON JESUIT SPIRITUALITY The Seminar is composed of a number of Jesuits appointed from their provinces in the United States. It concerns itself with topics pertaining to the spiritual doctrine and practice of Jesuits, especially United States Jesuits, and communicates the results to the members of the provinces through its publication, STUDIES IN THE SPIRITUALITY OF JESUITS. This is done in the spirit of Vatican Li's recommendation that religious institutes recapture the original inspiration of their founders and adapt it to the circumstances of modern times. The Seminar welcomes reactions or comments in regard to the material that it publishes. The Seminar focuses its direct attention on the life and work of the Jesuits of the United States. The issues treated may be common also to Jesuits of other regions, to other priests, religious, and laity, to both men and women. Hence, the journal, while meant especially for American Jesuits, is not exclusively for them. Others who may find it helpful are cordially welcome to make use of it. CURRENT MEMBERS OF THE SEMINAR Robert L. Bireley, S.J., teaches history at Loyola University, Chicago, IL (2001). Richard A. Blake, S.J., is chairman of the Seminar and editor of STUDIES; he teaches film studies at Boston College, Chestnut Hill, MA (2002).
