The Archbishop’s Commission on Racial Healing in collaboration with the Parish of the Cathedral Basilica of Saints Peter and Paul announced a Lenten book club series to take place online and in person in March and April.

Participants will read, journal, and pray their way through “The Spiritual Work of Racial Justice: A Month of Meditations with St. Ignatius Loyola” by Patrick Saint-Jean, S.J.

The club is an opportunity to join a peer-guided weekly gathering to reflect on how the life, death and resurrection of Jesus, as Father Saint-Jean shares it with us, sheds piercing light on the sin of racism and how to begin to heal its effects on all of us.

The meditations follow the framework of the Ignatian Spiritual Exercises as laid out by St. Ignatius of Loyola.

The online sessions will take place at 7:00 p.m. on Mondays during Lent (March 10, 17, 24, 31, and April 7), and the in-person sessions will take place at 7:00 p.m. on Fridays in Lent at the Cathedral Basilica of Saints Peter and Paul (March 7, 14, 21, and April 4 and 11).
