Jesuit Connections Chicago April 2019 Event Registration
Magis: the tension of "more" in a liturgical season of "less"
A Lenten Morning of Reflection
| Saturday, April 6, 2019 10 a.m. - 1 p.m. | Ascension Catholic Church 808 S. East Ave, Oak Park, IL |
Speaker: Lauren Hackman-Brooks
Chaplain, Loyola University Chicago - Health Sciences Division
The concept of Magis, often translated as “more”, is inspiring, challenging and often misappropriated by individuals and institutions. With other young adults, reconsider “Magis” this Lent through individual prayer and conversation during our annual Jesuit Connections morning of reflection. Together we’ll explore how practices from our tradition and contemporary culture- Sabbath, self-care, simplicity, service, and Scripture- might help us redirect our pursuit of “more” in service of the “greater” glory of God and the common good.
