February 26, 2006 – Day of Recollection: The Lenten Journey from an Ignatian Perspective

Each year the season of Lent offers Christians an opportunity to reflect on the direction of their lives, the spirituality which grounds them and the way they live their faith in the world. In that Spirit, Fr. Phil Boroughs, S.J. will lead us in a Day of Recollection where we will consider how we are loved by God, how God’s love in Jesus gives us the strength we need to grow through the challenges and suffering of our lives, and how Jesus’ resurrection gives courage to live in hope. Fr. Boroughs will draw on the resources of the Ignatian tradition to help us be discerning and prayerful in our everyday lives.

Fr. Phil Boroughs, J.S. came to Georgetown from Seattle University in the summer of 2003 to become our first Vice President for Mission and Ministry. In that capacity he works with students, faculty, staff, and alums to promote our Catholic and Jesuit identity on campus and values which flow out of that identity; such as a commitment to interreligious understanding, the service of faith and the promotion of justice, respect and care for all persons, and the role of reflection and prayer in discerned decision-making. Fr. Boroughs ha a PhD in Christian Spirituality; and in addition to his academic works, has guided retreats and worked din parishes. As a homilist and director of retreats his style is both insightful and practical.
