At the beginning of the year, we had in Brussels the first face to face meeting for the organization of the EJiF 2022. The participants were two of the members of the CoCo (the Coordinating Committee), Karol Klimaszyk sj (PMA) and Luis Delgado sj (ESP), the President of the Conference, Franck Janin sj, and his Assistant, Herminio Rico sj. Unfortunately, Filippo Carlomagno (EUM) could not travel to Brussels due to a Covid quarantine in Rome, but he participated in the meetings through Zoom.

The work done the previous months was shared and the schedule of the EJiF was discussed. The EJiF 2022 will take place at the end of the Ignatian Year in Spain, between 13th July and 3rd August. We will meet successively in Barcelona, Manresa and Loyola, three main cities of the beginning of the experience of Ignatius, a conversion that was developing every day all throughout his life. The proposed path for this summer goes hand in hand with the topic of this EJiF edition: “Returning to the roots”.
