In 1684, Mother Ignacia del Espiritu Santo made a life-changing Ignatian retreat during which God directed her to a total and radical "service to the Davine Majesty . . ."
Born of Mother Foundress' experience of the Spiritual Exercises, the foundational community of Beatas de la Compañia de Jesus, and we the Religious of the Virgin Mary, have reaped the fruit of her discerned vocational choice.
Mother Ignacia: Ang Uliran (1998 Movie)
Grateful for the blazing trail she paved for us,
we too, earnestly desire that our intimate encounters with God
in daily prayer and annual retreat
transform us into becoming a contemplative and prophetic presence in our world.
We hold the same desire for every person we journey with
in the ministry of retreat and spiritual direction.
