From the forward of the April 2021 edition...
On May 2021 it will be five hundred years since Ignatius of Loyola was wounded at the Battle of Pamplona, triggering his conversion from dreams of military glory to the service a greater Lord. Next year marks the four hundredth anniversary of the canonization of Ignatius and another of the first Jesuits, Francis Xavier. Spanning these events, the current Jesuit General, Arturo Sosa, has called for the celebration of an 'Ignatian Year', offering an opportunity to reflect upon the origins of this particular pathway to God. This special issue of the The Way, focusing on the person of St Ignatius and his First Companions, is one contribution to that celebration.
The April 2021 edition, published at the start of the Ignatian Year, focuses on the person of St Ignatius and his First Companions. Information about this issue can be found here.

The team at St Beuno's have created this retreat for participants to reflect on Pope Leo XIV's statement: "We want to be a synodal church, walking and always seeking peace, charity, closeness, especially to those who are suffering."
This residential course includes listening skills, discernment of spirits, a model of Ignatian spiritual conversation and accompaniment, and ways of praying. The course will help deepen and improve one-to-one pastoral ministry, using Ignatian principles based on the Spiritual Exercises.
