Collaboration

I am from Chile, and in recent times I have been overjoyed to discover in a number of places the existence of a non-traditional export: the figure of Father Hurtado, Saint Alberto Hurtado.

In July 1988 I was ordained a priest in Andahuaylillas, one of the 7 rural indigenous (Quechua) parishes entrusted to the Society of Jesus in the province of Quispicanchi, Cusco.

“Progetto Scampia” was launched in the year 2001, in response to the requests of the Superiors of the Society, who greatly wanted an apostolic presence of the Jesuits in this district located in the North of Naples, renowned for its very high crime rate.

The guiding principle of the 32nd General Congregation of the Society of Jesus (1974/75): Our identity is realised in action for faith and justice. This direction was difficult to grasp for many German-speaking Jesuits. Two new communities (Frankfurt/M and Berlin) were to put these social and spiritual objectives into practice.

As we nearly complete three years of our existence as the Ecology Program of Jesuit Service-Cambodia, we look back and ask ourselves, “What can we be happy about since we began working together for the environment in Cambodia?” We started early in 2013, with two fresh graduates from Banteay Prieb, our vocational school for persons with a disability.

I am a Spanish Jesuit, 82 years of age, the last 22 of which I have spent in the Peruvian rainforest. I write fromthe parish of Chiriaco, in the province of Bagua in the Amazonas region, where I was sent inthe year 2009.

I have for the past three years worked in a service called Connexions as part of my regency, which I entered shortly after completing my Masters in Counselling Psychology at Boston College.

In the month of January 2014 I was visiting various educational centres of our Christian organizations in the four dioceses of Gujarat, India. Primarily I had to interview a few students with disabilities and non-disabilities, their parents and principals, in order to assess the impact of the inclusive education in their respective educational institutions.
