Program Title: Ignatian Breakfasts and Lunches

Contact Person/Office:

School : Fr. Kevin Schneider, S.J.

Program Description: Ignatian Breakfasts and Lunches occur approximately four times each year and provide a forum for spiritual direction for faculty and staff in the style of St. Ignatius of Loyola.

Rationale: To provide a forum for spiritual direction for faculty and staff in the style of St. Ignatius of Loyola. It brings the faculty and staff together as a community four times each year and allows them to connect the theme and the Ignatian aspect of that theme to the daily life of the Prep community.

Leadership: Fr. Kevin Schneider organizes this and implements it. He often calls upon other faculty members to speak to the theme or assist in the presentation in some form.

Implementation: This really started to take place during the 2008-2009 school year. It was much less structured the first year and Fr. Jim Ryan S.J. assisted Kevin with implementation. During the 2009-2010 school year, the breakfasts centered around the reading of a book titled What is Ignatian Spirituality? by David Fleming S.J. 2010-2011 focused on the life of Pedro Arrupe, S.J. and the 2011-2012 school year focused on the Eucharist.

Processes and Resources: Each breakfast happens once during the quarter. It is a late start for the entire school. After each breakfast an invitation to have lunch in the Jesuit residence is extended and if an individual would like to attend, they can.

Finances: $ for breakfast; $ for lunch; $ for books (if needed). Last year the amount of money that was spent total on this program was $1000

Rewards: Greater sense of our Ignatian Identity, greater sense of community, getting to know our fellow faculty on a deeper level

Time (When/Length): Ignatian breakfasts are offered once a quarter. The school has a late start that morning and the presentation lasts for about 35-45 minutes.

Location (Space): In our auditorium (convenient space for entire faculty) and breakfast is served in the lobby outside the auditorium.

Accountability/Assessment: All faculty are required to attend. Surveys are sent out following the Ignatian breakfasts and lunches to get faculty feedback. Generally the feedback has been good.

What is in a lens?

Lens makers point to materials (modules and collections), creating a guide that includes their own comments and descriptive tags about the content.

Who can create a lens?

Any individual member, a community, or a respected organization.

What are tags?

Tags are descriptors added by lens makers to help label content, attaching a vocabulary that is meaningful in the context of the lens.
