Fr Brian McCoy, Provincial Superior of the Australian Province of the Society of Jesus, discusses some of the key aspects of Ignatian spirituality, his mission work experience in Alice Springs, and the distinctly Ignatian call from His Holiness Pope Francis, inviting us all to experience an ever deepening relationship with God’s creation.
