OUR MISSION
Ignatians West is a community of mature adults rooted in Ignatian Spirituality. We share our skills, talents, experience, and hearts as part-time volunteers in nonprofit agencies. We assist and companion poor and marginalized persons, making real the transformative power of God’s love in both those who serve and those who are served.
