By mid-January the European meeting of pastoral workers of JECSE, the European network of Jesuit schools, took place in Manresa. Jesuits and lay people from twelve different countries came to the city of Barcelona to deepen their understanding of the importance of pastoral accompaniment open to hope.

Throughout the four days, the 65 participants had time to reflect on the current reality of young people and accompaniment in a theological key in a changing world through two conferences. There was also time for reflection, prayer, spiritual conversation, discovering other realities through workshops and, of course, visiting the Ignatian places of Manresa and Montserrat.

The delegation from Educsi (Province of Spain) had the lively presence of 25 participants, who, in addition to taking advantage of the experience, were able to get to know each other and discover more and better other realities of the sector and of the province.
