(New  Orleans, La. – July 1, 2022) The Loyola Institute for Ministry,  together with Immaculate Conception Church, welcomes Xavier University  President Dr. Reynold Verrett, to deliver a talk as part of “Cannonball  Conversations,” a lunchtime speaker series in honor of the current  international Ignatian Year. 

Dr. Verrett will present “Catholicity and Pentecost: the Universality  of God’s Love,” at 12:30 p.m. on Tuesday, July 12, at Immaculate  Conception, located at 130 Baronne Street. The 45-minute talk follows  the noontime Mass and will include time for Q and A at the end. The  event will also be live-streamed on the parish YouTube channel. 

Dr. Verrett is a biochemist and immunologist, with degrees from  Columbia University and MIT that he has put to use in both the classroom  and the research lab. He took office as the six president and second  lay leader of Xavier, the nation’s only Catholic Historically Black  University (HBCU) in 2015.

"Cannonball Conversations" features prominent local voices talking  about faith, finding your path, and changing the world. Called for  2021-2022, the Ignatian Year commemorates the 500th Anniversary of St.  Ignatius of Loyola's conversion and the 400th of his canonization. See  the attached flyer for more details.
