Ignatian Spirituality Is the Heart and Soul of the Jesuit Mission. Jesuit Retreats Offer a Path to Anyone Seeking to Practice This Spirituality More Deeply and Find God in All Things.
Ignatian spirituality is the heart and soul of the Jesuit mission. Jesuit retreats offer a path to anyone seeking to practice this spirituality more deeply and find God in all things.
The Midwest Jesuits have 7 sponsored retreat ministries in seven states (plus two university retreat centers), serving everyone from high school students and young adults, people experiencing homelessness and addiction, busy professionals looking for quiet, and seasoned retreatants traveling an ongoing journey to grow closer to God.
Jesuit retreat centers can be found in places ranging from New England’s rocky coast to the foothills of the Rockies and the rustic trails of Santa Clara Valley. They are part of urban landscapes too.
David Inczauskis, SJ
David was born in Hinsdale, Illinois, and raised in Homer Glen, Illinois. A graduate of Wake Forest University, he met the Jesuits while studying liberation theology at Oxford University and joined the Society after graduation in 2014.
As a Jesuit, David has been particularly active in academics: studying or working at a university every year since taking first vows in St. Paul, Minnesota, in 2016. He published two books in Spanish, one in 2019 on Honduran theater and one in 2022 on Honduran cinema. His current research as a doctoral student in philosophy at Loyola University Chicago focuses on critical phenomenology and Latin American liberation philosophy. Also at Loyola Chicago, he serves as chaplain to the men’s volleyball team and to the Spanglish Christian life community. Off campus, he works as a community organizer with the Coalition for Spiritual and Public Leadership.
After ordination, David will continue as a doctoral student in philosophy at Loyola University Chicago.
