Meet the 2017-2018 Ignite Interns

This year marked a major step forward for the Jesuit Spiritual Center as we launched the Ignite Internship. 4 young men and women have joined together to live in community on the grounds of the JSC in the historic Rock House. Throughout the next 10 months, they will serve as part of our Ministry Team, provided retreats to over 6,000 youth and also assist with other aspects of hospitality to our guests.
