Jesuit Tom O’Hara dedicated much of his ministry in the Jesuits in spiritual guidance and in particular in the Spiritual Exercises of St Ignatius as well as in Parish Ministry. He became an expert spiritual guide. He wrote accessible texts on the spiritual life including At Home with God, At Home with Jesus, and At Home with the Spirit. Tom found a home in the life of the Trinity furnished by the insights of St Ignatius. And all the time, his spiritual insights were grounded in the practicality and earthiness of his life and of the lives of those whom he befriended particularly through weddings and baptisms and at regular celebrations of the parish Eucharist in the Parish of North Sydney. He died just short of his 84th birthday.
