Jesuit Tertianship in Bikfaya
“… after those who were sent to studies have achieved the diligent and careful formation of the intellect by learning, they will find it helpful during the period of the last probation to apply themselves in the school of the heart, by exercising themselves in spiritual and corporal pursuits which can engender in them greater humility, abnegation of all sensual love and will and judgment of their own, and also greater knowledge and love of God our Lord; that when they themselves have made progress they can better help others to progress for glory to God our Lord” (Constitutions 516.)
Fr. Peter-Hans Kolvenbach
Tertianship, as a school of the heart, “aims at touching the Jesuit in the depth of his affectivity. What is at stake is his maturity and specifically apostolic capacity.”

The focus of our Tertianship in Lebanon is Reconciliation. Contemplating the ways of the Spirit of God in the midst of our conflicts enables us to discern the ways in which we can become coadjutors of the Mission of Christ.
