From 18 to 22 November, the Ignatian “First Week” and “Foundation” retreat took place at the Jesuit center “Space of Hope” in Chernivtsi. The retreat was led by Fr. Bartolomej Przepeluk SJ.

Nine participants from different regions of Ukraine took part in the retreat. During these days, they had the opportunity to renew themselves in God’s presence, experience peace, and distance themselves from everyday concerns. The participants also highlighted the warm atmosphere and hospitality of the local Jesuit community, which provided a supportive environment for deep prayer and spiritual reflection.
