Christian
Formation Team
"Men
and women of God. Men and women for others."
By
the end of their time in a Jesuit school, it is hoped that young people
are:
| Developing
and deepening their relationship with God, and are able to find
God in reflection on their own experience. |
|
|
Happy, friendly
and self-confident, with a sense of humour and an awareness of
their God-given gifts and the need to fulfil their potential for
good |
| Seen to
have a generosity of spirit and a readiness to place their talents
at the disposal of others, especially the most needy |
|
|
In the process
of deepening their understanding of who Christ is and of living
out their faith more fully |
| Well prepared
to take their place in wider society unmotivated by prestige or
selfish ambition and aware of how fully they can contribute to
the common good |
|
|
Ready to
ask, 'What more can I do, what more can I give?' in every area
of life |
| Proud of
having belonged to a Jesuit school community with respect for
its values and those who taught them |
|

"Wherever
in the Church, even in the most difficult and extreme fields,
in the crossroads of ideologies, in the front line of social conflict,
there has been and there is confrontation between the deepest
desires of the human person and the perennial message of the Gospel,
there also there have been, and there are, Jesuits." Pope
Paul VI - Allocution to General Congregation 32, op. cit., n.
