The Way 61/3 (July 2022), Conversion

On 20 May 1521 the Basque knight Iñigo de Loyola was seriously injured by a cannonball while defending the town of Pamplona against French besiegers. His long recovery gave him a chance to reassess his life, and set him on the path towards composing the Spiritual Exercises and founding the Society of Jesus. The Society has been celebrating the fifth centenary of this event with an anniversary year, running up to his feast-day on 31 July 2022. The theme of ‘conversion’, chosen for this commemoration, is reflected in this year’s special issue of The Way.
