An Ignatian Spirituality Centre in India was a felt need not only for the Jesuits but also for the Religious and the Laity to be trained in Ignatian Spirituality. The Triple Jubilees of St Ignatius, St Francis Xavier and Bl. Peter Faber were an ideal opportunity to translate this need into a reality. Therefore, this Spirituality Centre is in a way an Assistancy venture. For any meeting of a large number of Jesuits in the Assistancy, if held in South Asia or for any training programme, Jesuits are most welcome to the Ignatian Spirituality Centre. The decree in GC 35 on Lay Collaboration 
has provided abundant opportunities for this house to be used as a training centre for Lay Collaborators in Ignatian pedagogy. Fr Lisbert D’Souza inaugurated this house on 17 October 2007 and since then it has always been made use of by Jesuits and other religious alike for 30-day retreats, Ignatian Spirituality courses together with spiritual training and leadership.
