Happy New Year for all, and may 2022 be starting off “with the right foot” ! The invitation to the Loyola gathering arrives this time from Kevin and Ciara, who work at the Jesuit Faith and Justice Centre (JFJC) in Dublin. The JFJC belongs to the European Network of Social Centres, whose work concentrate on the three main areas of research/reflection, education and publishing, and advocacy activities. You can know more about them here.
 Together with the Jesuit Refugee Service (JRS), the Network of the Social Apostolate Delegates, and the Xavier Network that were presented in the previous newsletters, the Social Centres' Network is another group that is very much engaged in the organization of the Loyola meeting. Even if not involved in direct assistance to people in need, their work is by no means less important, in its role of providing solid reflection, raising public awareness and offering proposals of change, to local and international political agents, towards a better and fairer world. The gathering of all these people who are "companions in the European ignatian justice and ecology mission", coming from all these different fields of expertise, is another one of the goals of the Congress. We are now less than three months away from Loyola, and getting our minds and hearts ready for this week of mutual learning, sharing and networking...
