Deusto CampusFaith

Introduction

The University of Deusto, an institution of the Society of Jesus, assumes the mission of serving society through a specifically university-based contribution and from a Christian vision of reality.

We believe that faith is an important dimension in the development of the person. For this reason, we promote activities to live, share and grow in the experience of faith. From the Jesuit tradition and Ignatian spirituality, framed in the Catholic Christian faith, several possibilities are offered.

In this sense, the Faith and Spirituality area offers you accompaniment, training and experiences that will help you to get to know the Christian faith better, to deepen the spiritual dimension of your life and from there to discover how to contribute to a more just and sustainable world.

Joaquín Mussacchio - Want to talk? I'm listening

Our students

The spiritual accompaniment allowed me to enter into my inner self and to visualise issues to strengthen my life project.

It has been a very rewarding experience that has given me the chance to stop, reflect and disconnect from my routine.

MAG+S Community

It is a network that promotes groups of young people (between 20 and 30 years old) in which to share and deepen their faith and life. Through group meetings, events and celebrations, with other people your age, you look at life and join a journey that helps you to seek and find God in everyday life, encourage commitment to justice and help each young person to find their place in the church and in the world through vocational discernment tools.

In Bilbao we are organised in four/five groups, which are made up of 10-12 people. Most of us are studying although some of us have already started working.

Garate International at the University of DeustoIcono para el play del video

Garate International

Every year, the University of Deusto's community welcomes a significant number of international students with whom we share a space of encounter between different cultures, traditions and religions. We do so inspired by the figure of Blessed Francisco Garate (1888 - 1929), who was the person in charge of welcoming students to the university for forty years.

Your vocation starts today

Vocational culture

The story runs a certain parallelism between the conversion experience that Ignatius of Loyola lived 500 years ago and the wound that Nacho is living today in 2022. UNIJES has commissioned this inspirational video as part of the Project for the development of a Vocational Culture in its centres and on the occasion of the celebration of the 500th anniversary of the conversion of Saint Ignatius of Loyola. Remember, your vocation begins today, day by day, it begins in your story and with others.

What is it?

Eliza Sarean is a project that seeks to generate spaces for reflection, dialogue, training and sharing on the way of being of the Church in the network. Acción Católica General of Biscay and the University of Deusto collaborate in this initiative that responds to different realities that we have detected and that we highlight:

  • The challenges posed by the so-called digital society.
  • The need for new languages and new ecclesial presences.
  • The calls arising from the Synod of Bishops on youth.
  • The poor ecclesial presence in the network of networks, especially in our geographical area of influence.
  • The call to seek new ways of ecclesial collaboration.
  • The need for formation in this area.

These spaces mentioned above are a flexible proposal depending on the different groups we want to reach. We invite as many people as possible, including the following groups:

  • Church leaders: among them we would like to highlight pastoral workers, to whom we would like to offer a simple and useful proposal for reflection and the use of networks.
  • Ecclesial movements: we especially highlight those that are in direct contact with young people, such as Basque Country Scouts and other leisure time groups. We would like to provide group monitors and animators with some keys to help them in their task in relation to the group and communication with its users.
  • Educators: Kristau Eskola is the reference point for Christian education in Biscay with the centres of the diocese. We want to reach out to them as multiplying agents in society.
  • People interested in the subject, either for its faith dimension or for digital and sociological reflection.
  • University community.

To this end, and to provide a narrative to guide communication and understanding, we want to be present in different channels. The first channel is the virtual one. We invite you to follow us on our Instagram account: @elizasarean.

If you have any questions or comments, please write to us at elizasarean@gmail.com and we will respond as soon as possible.

We will also have spaces for meetings and dialogue at the University of Deusto. Check Eliza Sarean's meeting offer on the website and sign up for the activities.
