IGNACIAN CORE VALUES

 A. FAITH
DEFINITION: ✵ a personal relationship with God based on trust
✵ Authentic Christian faith is responding to God’s Self-revelation through
Jesus Christ in the Holy Spirit. It brings about a way of life that embraces
the conviction of the Gospel truths, the active commitment to obey God’s
holy will, and the personal trust and self-offering in Christian Worship.
(cf. NCDP 2007: n. 199)
✵ “Faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not
seen.” (Heb 11:1) ✵ Jesus is the “faithful witness” (Rev 1:5), the “pioneer and
perfecter of our faith” (Heb 12:2) ✵ Mary is the woman of faith who “believed
that there would be a fulfillment of what was spoken to her by the Lord” (Lk
1:45)
✵ We are “surrounded by a cloud of witnesses” (Heb 12:1) not only from
biblical times (Heb 11:1-40) but also from the beginnings of the Church
up to our times, people whom we revere as saints. Among our models of
faith is our beloved Mother Ignacia del Espiritu Santo.

IGNACIAN CORE VALUES

B. EXCELLENCE
DEFINITION: ✵ State of possessing good qualities in an eminent degree, meeting the
standard of quality, having eminent goodness of its kind, outstanding
valuable quality, worthy of praise. ✵ Excellence is not an act but a habit
(Aristotle). It is not a skill but an attitude (Ralph Marston).
✵ Excellence of moral character is virtue.
✵ Excellence is associated with honor: “Excel in all you do; bring no stain
upon your honor” (Sir 33:23).
✵ St. Paul reminded the Corinthians of “an excellent way” (1 Cor 12:31)
which is no other than LOVE (1 Cor 13). Excellence is conveyed in the
commandment to love God “with all your heart, with all your soul, with all
your mind, with all your strength” (Mk 12:30; Dt 6:5)
✵ Jesus gave an example of excellence in fulfilling his mission by the way
He ministered to people. The excellence of his commitment to the Father’s
will is manifested on the cross (Jn 13:1). “No one has greater love than this,
to lay down one’s life for one’s friends” (Jn 15:13).
✵ In the Ignacian tradition, excellence is always seeking and doing the will
of God. It reflects the attitude of magis of St. Ignatius of Loyola: always
seeking to do more for God, working for God’s greater honor and glory.

IGNACIAN CORE VALUES

C. SERVICE
DEFINITION: ✵ To serve is to render assistance or help by performing certain duties. Service is
any work or tasks done by lesser persons for those who controlled their
existence. Jesus transformed the meaning of service from slave service to loving
service by giving an example of service which is not servile work. “If I, your Lord
and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another’s feet.
For I have set you an example, that you also should do as I have done to you.
Very truly, I tell you, servants are not greater than their master, nor are
messengers greater than the one who sent them” (Jn 13:14- 16).
✵ Jesus spent his life in service of others in fulfillment of the mission given to Him by
the Father. Jesus said, “I am among you as one who serves” (Lk 22:27)” and
“Whoever wishes to become great among you must be your servant, and whoever
wishes to be first among you must be slave of all. For the Son of Man came not to be
served but to serve and to give his life as a ransom for many” (Mk 10:43-45).
✵ Christian life is a life of service. Service is the use of one’s resources for the
benefit of others. It is putting one’s gifts at the disposal of the community for
the common good. It is the Holy Spirit that equips Christians for service
according to the variety of gifts given to them. Christian service is founded on
the very life and mission of Jesus. “He died for all so that those who live might
live no longer for themselves, but for him who died and was raised for them”
 (2 Cor 5:15). It is “the love of Christ that impels us” (2 Cor 5:14).
✵ Mother Ignacia’s was inspired by the Holy Spirit to remain in the service of the
Divine Majesty. She understood Christian life to be a life of loving service to
others in response to God who is a loving and merciful Father. She dedicated
her self to “the service of God, our Father, whose greater honor and glory must
be the motive of all our acts” (1726 Rules VI.16).
