Parish 'The Thought'

The parish weekly newsletter with all of the events, spiritual resources, and information on the goings on in the church.

I promised during this month of November to highlight prayer groups to deepen your interior life. The first one is one that I belonged to while I lived in New York. I was a faithful member for four years. It’s called Christian Life Community. I will call it CLC from this point forward. This international movement has been in existence since 1563. Its former name was The Sodality. In 1974 the Society of Jesus and the Sodality’s leaders officially changed the name to dissociate it from other sodalities that had a very different mission. CLC is the only global organization to my knowledge that’s officially sponsored by the Society of Jesus for lay men and women. It has the full support of Father General.

Welcome to St. Ignatius Catholic Community in the Mount Vernon section of downtown Baltimore.

Over a thousand people have found a spiritual home here—people of all ages, cultures, and in different seasons of life. Families are encouraged, children are nurtured, older people are supported, and college students are challenged.
