Live the Gospel,Whatever it takes!
Welcome to St. Ignatius Catholic Community in the Mount Vernon section of downtown Baltimore.
Over a thousand people have found a spiritual home here—people of all ages, cultures, and in different seasons of life. Families are encouraged, children are nurtured, older people are supported, and college students are challenged.
