Formazione gesuita
Programmi per gesuiti
Pray, visit, study and share the Land of our roots, where everything began.
Bible and spirituality in the Holy Land
Dates of the next programme to be announced.
A unique experience of faith and of the Society, together with Jesuits and Jesuit collaborators and friends, from different parts of the world. The Bible, the Holy Land, Jesus and Ignatius will be our guides.
The programme offers pilgrimage in the Land, with a focus on the journey of God with the people of Israel (Judean Desert and Negev) and through the incarnation (Galilee), followed by eight days of Spiritual Exercises in the Old City of Jerusalem.
“I can say that my time in the Holy Land was a journey with the Lord accompanied by the heart and senses of a true pilgrim.” — Fr Jose M. Manzano SJ, Philippines
Personalised plans
A personal itinerary can be worked out for those who desire to spend time in Jerusalem in particular with the Jesuit community. We offer guided retreats, visits to the holy places, Biblical courses, Ignatian reflection and opportunities to get to know contemporary Israeli and Palestinian society.
Who the programmes are for
- Jesuits in formation, brothers and priests
- Lay women and men collaborators and associates in Ignatian apostolates
- Religious sisters and priests who are interested in having a Holy Land experience and Ignatian spirituality
The programmes are held in English. For the Spiritual Exercises, the Jesuit staff offers the possibility for a personal dialogue in different languages (English, French, Italian, or Spanish).
