THE SUSCIPE Take, Lord, and received all my liberty, my memory, my understanding, and my entire will, All I have and call my own. You have given all to me. To you, Lord, I return it. Everything is yours; do with it what you will. Give me only your love and your grace, that is enough for me. Saint Ignatius of Loyola, 1491-1556 Loyola Press + THANK YOU FOR THIS JOURNEY TOGETHER + It is sad to see this retreat come to an end. What a special time it has been with Fr. Mark, St. Ignatius of Loyola and Jesus. Thank you, Holy Spirit, for being our guide in such a gentle way. How providential, Lord God, that we would end our retreat as our cities begin opening again after the coronavirus pandemic. Thank you, God for loving us. Lead us out shining your light more brightly than when we entered.
