PROGRAMS IN SPIRITUALITY AND SERVICE
Ignacio Volunteer Programs
The Ignacio Volunteers are a series of international immersion programs for the Loyola University New Orleans community.
GOALS:
-
TO SERVE: Participants will work with those of the greatest need -- the impoverished & challenged, the disadvantaged young and the elderly.
-
TO LEARN: Participants will have an opportunity to explore the political, sociological, and economic issues that have created the enviornment and situation in which they will find themselves.
Participants in all service trips travel and work as one community. A certain amount of advance preparation is required, as well as regular spiritual sharing and reflection on the trip itself.
