Belize – Jesuits at the Frontiers
In our series highlighting the presence of Jesuits in particularly demanding environments, this time we journey to Belize, a lesser-known country in the Americas.
For over 150 years, Jesuits have been diligently offering pastoral and educational services in the capital, Belize City, as well as amidst the tropical forests.
These images bear witness to the vibrant life in occasionally challenging contexts that demand efforts to combat poverty and violence.
