1.Dear Lawrence,
Good work. The website allows the scholastics to write and share about their experiences. Spiritual Conversation has always been a formative part of the Jesuit way of functioning. This could be one way to realize it.

3. A request made to various commission members of our province.
Dear Paul and the social action team,
Dear Paul and the social action team,
Thanks a lot for your willingness to be part of the training of the scholastics in this summer gathering at Jeevan Darsan, Baroda. A sincere thanks to Fr.Erwin,Fr.Xavier Manjooran, Fr.P.D.Mathew, Fr.Jolly and others. The two days work shop enabled the scholastics to understand the social realities of Gujarat in a better way. Hope they will continue to nurture the growth provided by you and your team. Hope in the near future the other commissions in our province would come forward to offer their services to the scholastics' body in the summer as they get-together in the summer once a year. Scholastics suggested that that the educational wing, or the communication wing or the pastoral wing could give a similar exposure to them. I am forwarding this e-mail to other commissions in the province so that they could start working towards being part of the formation of the scholastics in their own way. Hope to hear from them.
Another information and a request: In the province we have so may people running the websites but our scholastics are not able to access them. The commission head could collect the web links from their respective fields (commissions)and pass it on to me ,so that I could make it available to them in one place. We need to organize the good works that we do so that the scholastics can have a easy access to the information.
Thank you!
wishes from,
Fr.Lawrence dharmaraj s.j

Hi,
The Seekers, as a tribute to Fr. Peter Ribes SJ of the Bombay Province have got together a lot of good material from the sessions conducted by him over the years. They have started a website as a tribute to him. I am sure that you will find the site very profitable for your own work with youth. The site is http://www.ribessj.org/sessions.html
Warm regards,
Dinesh Braganza
