Ignatian Companions, a ministry of the Jesuits West Province, is a unique program that invites mature adults to deepen their relationship with God through prayer and service. Companions pray daily using Guide for the Journey, an adaption of the Spiritual Exercises of St Ignatius. The prayerful experience leads Companions to answer God’s call to accompany those in marginalized communities. The program starts with a one-day retreat on Saturday, August 24. Monthly gatherings at the Jesuit School of Theology in Berkeley are held from September through June.
