An important page is being turned in the communication department of the Conference of European Provincials. After 16 years of service, Fr. Philip Debruyne (ELC), JCEP's webmaster and communication officer, has decided to step down for a well-deserved rest.

He has known so many provincials, so many province communicators. He has tirelessly hunted for the best information to communicate for the Conference newsletter. He mastered every step of the process, from gathering information to publishing it on the website (jesuits.eu). We saw him at work again during the production of the latest video for our 2023 Easter greetings, imagining the scenario and orchestrating the cutting of the scenes and the movement of the camera.

We are really going to miss you Philip. With your skill, you could have wanted to impose your ideas, and you knew how to share them with conviction, but you were also a formidable team player and transmitter of knowledge. So much so that we have everything in hands to ensure the transition and think about a successor. But it will be difficult. Very difficult to do without you and your long experience.

 The whole Conference team in Brussels and all the Provinces are infinitely grateful to you for your services. May the Lord bless your journey ahead.

Outgoing JCEP President
