The Ignatian Family Teach-In for Justice is held annually in commemoration of the Jesuit martyrs of El Salvador and their lay colleagues who were assassinated at the Universidad de Centro America on November 16, 1989. Each year in Columbus Georgia thousands of high school and college students and others engaged in Jesuit ministries gather to call for an end to unjust social structures and to reflect on the Jesuit commitment to justice and peace.
We hope that you will join us for the November 2007 Ignatian Family Teach-In!
