On June 1 – 2, sixteen participants from all over Asia and the Pacific joined Mr. Charles (Chuck) Duffy, from the Roman Curia, in a Development Officers' Workshop on the Ateneo de Manila Campus. This initiative, coming from Fr Peter Hans Kolvenbach, seeks to establish in every Jesuit Province and Region a development mechanism to support our various apostolates.

The resolutions from this group will be presented to the Major Superiors in their July meeting, and it is expected that a four-day training session will follow in late February 2010.

In Manila

Fr Ai will leave on June 14, visiting Malaysia and Singapore before going teach theology in Vietnam. Also leaving Arrupe Residence is Fr Jim Meehan (PHI), but he continues to generously serve the Conference with his new assignment at the East Asian Pastoral Institute.
