Don't forget your Birkenstocks

                                       By their foot you shall know them



America, the Jesuit magazine, has news of "an intriguing Jesuit initiative" called "Magis."  Magis is sort of the Jesuit version of World Youth Day, only without the pope.  Also without much Catholicism.  Instead, "participants at Magis got involved in a variety of activities related with social engagements (e.g., migrants, childhood, minorities, persons with disabilities), culture and arts (music, photography, restoration), spirituality (pilgrimages), and also ecology."

Do the Jesuits aim to provide the last stop on the way out of the Faith, or the first stop on the way in? 


St. Ignatius Loyola, pray for us.
