Father General in Colombia in images
Father Arturo Sosa, Superior General, was in Colombia from 17 to 25 June. The Province of Colombia brings us a snapshot of the critical moments of this visit. The programme was a busy one!
Participation in the Assembly of the CPAL (Conference of Provincials of Latin America and the Caribbean), meeting with the young and elderly Jesuits in Medellín, visit to various social work centres, participation in the “Espacio para el Espíritu” series at the Javeriana University in Bogotá, and Eucharistic celebration at the university’s pastoral centre.
Finally, the opening of the centenary celebration of the Colombian Province with a solemn mass during which Father General received the final vows of two Colombian Jesuits.
Here is a short video, and
perhaps you can re-visit the articles published about the visit between 21 June
and 5 July.
