Outreach of The World Community for Christian Meditation

The John Main Seminar 2020

by Leave a Comment

The John Main Seminar 2020 organized by the Community in Mexico will be held online, from 19 (2 pm, Mexico) to 22 October (4 pm, Mexico). This change in plan is just one of the innumerable changes Covid 19 has forced on the world. But the theme of this year’s Seminar is acutely relevant to the crisis we are passing through, something never before confronted by humanity: where and how can we find the wisdom to survive and flourish? ‘One Heart, One Hope – Indigenous wisdom, and the future of humanity‘ will offer ancestral as well as new answers to this question.

The keynote speaker will be Alex Zatyrka SJ, doctor in theology from the University of Innsbruck. He has spent many years with indigenous peoples in Mexico and Bolivia and has learnt their languages. Drawing from their wisdom and together with panelists representing indigenous peoples from three continents, he will help us explore these themes.

Please note that simultaneous translation to Spanish will be provided.
