Ignatian Year (20.05.2021 - 31.07.2022) Fr General has announced the Ignatian Year,
commemorating the 500th anniversary of the
conversion of St. Ignatius and the 400th
anniversary of his canonization.
The following members are part of the 'Goa

Pedro Arrupe Institute (PAI) is a center for Ignatian Spirituality. It offers retreats and courses on spirituality, scripture and theology to religious and laity.
Pedro Arrupe Institute is run by Goa Province of the Society of Jesus. The institute is located on a large campus in very scenic surrounding and has
nearly 45 self-contained rooms as well as large conference halls and classrooms. Their Mission is to promote Ignatian Spirituality and to help accompany
people along their faith journeys.
The Xavier Retreat House located on the very Picturesque peninsular end of the Calangute shore was one of four retreat
houses constructed by Fr. Adrian Le Tellier S.J., a Belgian Jesuit belonging to the Province of Kolkata. The other centres are in Mumbai, Mangalore and Goa.
Convinced that the Baga hillock was the ideal location for the Retreat House, Fr. Le Tellier made fervent appeals, coupled
with public prayers and penance to convince Prof. Christovao Egypsy, who was the owner of the property, to donate the land
for the purpose. He was able to start the construction of the project when providentially, his niece in Belgium joined the
Carmelites and donated the money that had been assigned for her dowry (should she have married) for the building of the Retreat House.
In fact, she was later permitted to visit Goa to see the fruit of her gift when it was in the process of coming up.
