Using the Ignatian concept of cura personalis (care of the whole person) as a starting point, Sr. Colleen Gibson, SSJ, and Br. Matt Wooters, SJ, explore more deeply what it means to put hope, joy and community at the heart of all we do.
In a world where we are often isolated, is it possible to put community at the center of our lives? How can we form communities of hope and joy?
