Paradigm Ledesma-Kolvenbach: practical,
social, humanistic and religious. the cornerstone of Jesuit education is finally not a
manual or a charter, but a Person who taught, by word and by life-style, God's vision and
values, in order to build up and to save humanity in all things. In this sense Jesuit colleges remain crucial institutional settings in human society. There is no doubt that Vatican II led the whole Church to recognize that the needs of our world required increasing participation and contribution by the laity in real partnership. The Council's graced insights and our own lived experience have led us to recognize the innate richness of collaboration, of partnership in ministry. Providing access to Ignatian spirituality for everyone involved in Jesuit education presents important opportunities to those willing to respond generously to its promptings. This process of growth in partnership is still going on; hence, its future developments may have even more surprises for us.
