Ignatian spirituality is a spirituality for everyday life. It insists that God is present in our world and active in our lives. It is a pathway to deeper prayer, good decisions guided by keen discernment, and an active life of service to others.
St. Ignatius of Loyola

Christian Life Community (CLC)
Christian Life Community (CLC) is an international association of lay Christians who have adopted an Ignatian model of spiritual life. The 'Community' of over 25,000 members is present in over sixty countries around the world.
CLC draws its inspiration from the teachings of Ignatius of Loyola, and receives spiritual guidance from the Jesuits. The experience of making the Spiritual Exercises of St Ignatius is foundational to the members of CLC, not simply as a retreat but as a way of life. Members are encouraged to adhere to a lifestyle which is gospel-based and simple, to serve the poor and to integrate contemplation and action.
As Ignatian spirituality has an essential apostolic dimension, members of CLC seek to bring Gospel values into all aspects of life in today’s world. -

Father General Arturo Sosa has urged members of Christian Life Community (CLC) define the mission of the movement in relation to the key elements of the Second Vatican Council. Father General also reminded the CLC members of the importance of involving the youth in the mission of the movement. Youths will ensure continuity of the mission of community in different parts of the world. He said the members of CLC were apostles within the Church, sent out on mission. As such, their mission should also include reaching the youth, who in recent years are being recognised as a very important group within the Christian family.Read More -

Told through the voices of residents, Moundsville is “an economic biography of a classic American town” located along the Ohio River in West Virginia. Pittsburgh CLC member and former Wall Street Journal reporter John W. Miller co-directed the film with David Bernarbo. The stories of the local people--in their own voices--offer a great way for us to better connect and understand each other... and to laugh with and appreciate one another, too! It was very well done!Read More -
January 7Here's another article by John W. Miller (Breathing Room CLC, Pittsburgh) that explores his latest film project with a behind-the-scenes analysis of choices he and his partner made in framing the narrative of this small town. I think the documentary is an example of wisdom language that Fr Nicholas speaks to us about as we live our vocation in the world, preaching the gospel at all times, if necessary using words, and always inviting, not imposing a deeper understanding of one another, from a world view based in Love.Read More
