Check out Other Six: Loyola Press

About Other Six, an experience offered by Loyola Press

Some of us find God in Church on Sundays, but finding God the other six days of the week can be a puzzle. Other6 is a community dedicated to helping each other experience God at all times, in all things.

The 2 questions are answered within 140 characters...very short


Ignatius of Loyola, the 16th-century founder of the Jesuits, devised an “examination of consciousness”—a prayerful review of the day intended to help people recognize where they were finding, or needing to find, God in their lives. Other6 takes the essence of this centuries-old practice of the Examen and adapts it for today’s Internet-driven world by posing two questions: Where have you found God today? and Where do you need to find God today?

Other6, an online ministry of Loyola Press, is Jesuit and Catholic in its inspiration but pushes no particular agenda; it is meant for anyone who seeks God with a sincere heart. Our prayer is that you will find this community a help in your search to draw closer to God.

The offering of Ignatius of Loyola:


My loving God,
Take and receive
All my liberty, my memory, my understanding, my entire will
And all that I have and possess.
You gave it all to me.
To you, my God, I return it!
All is yours, dispose of it according to your desires.
Give me your love and grace.
This is enough for me.
