High School (14-18 years old)
College (19-23 years old)
Young Adults (24+ years old)
Familieswith children under 14
2) ProvinceDiscernment Process
Ateam of 12-15 Jesuits and lay partners will discern a response to the question above, informed by what emerges from these listening sessions.
A proposal will be submitted to the Provincial by the summer of 2026.
