Located in 160-year-old Ss. Peter and Paul Jesuit Church parish, the Warming Center is people in mutual service to and with our neighbors, many of who live on the street, and whose realities include addiction, grief, shame, fear, impoverishment and/or mental impairment. Our mission is nurtured by Ignatian Spirituality, which is rooted in the spiritual experiences and writings of St. Ignatius of Loyola (1491-1556), the founder of the Jesuit order. This spirituality has been developed and adapted by Jesuits and lay people from its earliest beginnings. Today, the core of the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius of Loyola forms one’s relationships with God, one’s neighbor and oneself. The Warming Center offers the space necessary for building up these relationships.
