SPAHP and IGNATIAN VALUES

Reflection is different from critical thinking in that it incorporates the aspects of introspection and a willingness to learn more about our fundamental nature; our purpose and essence as human beings.

FINDING GOD IN ALL THINGS
Ignatius of Loyola taught others to experience life attuned to Gods activity in everyday circumstances. Finding God in all things is an invitation to encounter God's presence in each moment, to become aware of Gods beauty in everything, and to notice God's action in all the events of our lives through an ongoing process of personal discernment. As such, every academic discipline provides hope to encounter the divine. Click here for a biographical sketch of St. Ignatius of Loyola.
CURA PERSONALIS
Latin meaning care for the person, or "personal care". Cura personalis is having concern and care for the personal development of the whole person, and dedication to promoting human dignity. This includes being open to and accepting of a persons religious and spiritual development. It also describes the type of care we give as educators and health care professionals... we give not only of our knowledge, expertise and skill, but of ourselves. The care given, and the care received, is "personal care" not "institutionalized care".
MAGIS
Latin meaning the more, or "the greater good". Magis embodies the idea of discerning, What is the best choice in a given situation, of several good choices, to better glorify or serve the Lord?; e.g. choosing between options encountered in life with a primary focus of being God centered. "Magis" does NOT mean to always do or give more to the point of personal exhaustion. It is a value central to Ignatian spirituality and encompassed by the Latin phrase Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam meaning For the Greater Glory of God. (Motto of the Society of Jesus).
MEN AND WOMEN FOR AND WITH OTHERS
A spirit of giving and providing service to those in need and recognizing that all humans have physical, emotional, and spiritual needs. In 1973, Father Pedro Arrupe, S.J. (previous Superior General of the Society of Jesus) put it this way Men and women who will live not for themselves, who cannot even conceive of a love of God which does not include a love for the least of their neighbors, and who are completely convinced that a love of God which does not result in justice for all is a farce. Father Peter-Hans Kolvenbach, S.J., (also a former Superior General of the Society of Jesus) describes our goal to form leaders in health care who are "men and women of competence, conscience and compassionate commitment."
FAITH THAT DOES JUSTICE
All individuals (faculty, staff, & students) are encouraged to seek justice for all Gods creatures, especially the poor and marginalized. According to the Gospel, our goal is to work for the betterment of society as a whole. This is what A Faith That Does Justice actually means. We strive to prepare health care professionals who will be change agents in society, "contemplatives in action".
