Faculty, staff, and retirees are cordially invited to several different events this summer to honor St. Ignatius Loyola. As in prior years, this commemoration will involve both service to others and a community celebration.
Please join the entire Loyola University Chicago community for the Service Day on Thursday, July 30 at Edgebrook Woods-Friends of Chicago Forest Preserve Center, located at 6100 N. Central Avenue, in Chicago. Then, on Friday, July 31, St. Ignatius Loyola's feast day, we will start our campus celebration with Mass in Madonna della Strada Chapel followed by a picnic party adjacent to the chapel on the Lake Shore Campus.
On Friday, July 31, we will celebrate the feast day of St. Ignatius Loyola with a Mass held in the Madonna della Strada Chapel at 11 am, followed by our annual picnic on the Madonna della Strada parking lot, which will begin at 12:15 pm. As always, there will be food, games, and activities. So, please join with your fellow faculty, staff, and retirees to celebrate St. Ignatius and Loyola University Chicago.
