Sector Delegates meet with Directors of Works May 20th. In the Augustinian Centre at "Orlagh", overlooking a rain-swept city of Dublin the Delegates and Directors from the 7 sectors of our Jesuit mission in Ireland gathered to plan another year's work. It was a happy meeting for familiar companions and a surprise for some new. Eugene Quinn and Pádraic Naughton knew they worked with the Jesuits thanks to a nodding acquaintance on the steps in Sherrard St.. But to meet up as Directors of the CFJ and the PTAA filled in the gaps. And acronyms are a problem when you're taking up work with the Society or so said Garry O'Sullivan the new Director of the JCC. For the incoming Headmaster at Belvedere College, Gerard Foley, there seems a lot to learn about Ignatian ethos. However the meeting opened up a broader view of the Province's mission and participants spotted opportunities for cross-sectoral cooperation: all good fruits of a long but satisfying day. This bodes well for the Province Assembly Day on Sat. June 7th. where
it is hoped to have similar amalgam of information, support and links
forged over a wide spectrum of Jesuit and Lay work. Glossary of terms in the

Quoted in Fr. Brian Grogan's homily at the Delta/Dir. Wks day: Providence Until one is committed, there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back, always ineffectiveness, concerning all acts of initiative ( and creation). There is one elementary truth, the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans: that the moment one definitely commits oneself the providence moves too. All sorts of things occur to help one that would never otherwise have occurred. A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in one's favour all manner of unforeseen incidents and meetings and material assistance which no one could have dreamed would have come their way. Whatever you can do, or dream you can, begin it. |
