We Are Magis!
We are a vibrant network of young Catholics called to do more for Christ and His people. We love serving our communities and building lasting God-centered relationships while we’re at it. True to our Ignatian formation, we are committed to seeing God in all things. We are pilgrims on this earth, deepening our faith and strengthening our communities one experience at a time.
We Are Pilgrims
MAGIS is a Latin word meaning more, and was used by St Ignatius to communicate the idea of doing more for God. It is at once an experience, a personal journey, a network and a lifestyle guided by the three pillars: companionship, service and spirituality
Companionship
We show up for each other in our ordinary lives, actively sharing in each others’ experiences with joy and love. We cultivate nurturing hearts that always seek the good of the other. We cherish every moment together, creating lasting memories and beautiful friendships.
Service
We recognise that all human beings have spiritual, physical and emotional needs. In our commitment to do more for God, we open ourselves up to love creation and humanity through active service. This is in keeping with one of the key tenets of Ignatian spirituality, en todo amar y servir, a Spanish phrase that means in all things to love and to serve.
Spirituality
We are called to deepen our faith and relationship with God. Following Ignatian spirituality, we embark on a lifelong interior journey that pays attention to the movements of the Spirit as we experience daily life. As we strive to “see God in all things”, our experiences – both good and bad – are transformed into prayer, an avenue to feel God’s presence in our lives.

We Are Catholic!
“It is not the knowing that is difficult, but the doing. Act as if everything depended on you; trust as if everything depended on God. Teach us to give and not to count the cost.”
St Ignatius of Loyola
