Announcing our 2022 Gonzaga Lecture Series

Our Gonzaga Lecture Series returns this Lent with the theme of, "Cannonball moments" - celebrating 500 years since St Ignatius of Loyola was struck by a cannonball as a soldier, beginning his lifelong commitment to God's work. If this had not happened, he would have never created the Spiritual Exercises or founded the Society of Jesus.

The Gonzaga Lecture Series was launched in the mid- 1990s with a view to providing a forum for exploration and discussion of themes in contemporary Theology and society.

Hear from our amazing speakers this Lent:

  • 15th March - Fr Damian Howard SJ: ‘Cannonball moments: Ignatius and us’
  • 22nd March - Matthew Bartlett: ‘Cannonball moments: lessons from a pandemic’
  • 29th March - Dr. Sr Gemma Simmonds CJ: 'Cannonball moments: women in the church'
