At the end of the annual meeting of European Jesuits in Formation (EJIF), the delegates choose three members to be part of the Coordinating Committee (CoCo), that prepares the meeting of the following year.
For 2024, the members of the CoCo are: Jakub Majchrzak, PMA, doing his regency in Poland, accompanying university students in Spiritual Exercises; Joseph Ashraf, PRO, who is in his third year of philosophy, in Lebanon; and Vasco Lucas Pires, POR, who also studies philosophy, but in Rome. All three entered the Society of Jesus in 2019.
Between January 1st and January 5th, the CoCo met in Brussels, with Fr. Dalibor Renić and Fr. Hermínio Rico, to prepare gathering of 2024, in Denmark. Unfortunately, Joseph was not able to fly to Belgium, being present online.
Being this also a time of formation, this year’s EJIF will try to make us discover God that reveals Himself in all realities and that calls us to contemplate His Incarnation and to collaborate with Him in His mission of reconciliation.
As suggested by last year’s delegates, we want to go to some frontier. We will explore the idea of collaboration in Christ’s mission in the secularized world, having as starting point the reality of Denmark.
Not just the EJIF (one of the oldest and maybe most successful networks in the JCEP), but also the whole preparation is a beautiful experience of the International Society, allowing the collaboration between Jesuits of different Provinces and cultures.
