IFTJ Description

The Ignatian Family Teach-In for Justice is an annual gathering for members of the Ignatian family (Jesuit institutions and larger church) to come together in the context of social justice and solidarity to learn, reflect, pray, network, and advocate together. We gather each year in the spirit of the Jesuit martyrs of El Salvador, using their lives and ministry as inspiration for discovering the injustices of today and how we might engage in them. The Teach-In is a place where people are empowered, re-energized, inspired, challenged, and supported by a community that sees faith and justice intregally linked.

The Teach-In is a space for prophetic voices for solidarity with the economically poor, the marginalized, and the Earth who have an openness to an Ignatian approach to faith and justice. This year’s program will feature keynotes from Fred Kammer, S.J., Director of Jesuit Social Research Institute; Gabriel Bol Deng, a former lost boy of Sudan; Merlys Mosquera Chamat, Regional Director of Jesuit Refugee Service -Latin America and Caribbean, and Simone Campbell, S.S.S., Executive Director of NETWORK – A Catholic Social Justice Lobby.
