We, Piarists, are called by the cultural context of Europe to a fourfold adventure: to be experts in being human, in being non-violent, in living and working together in community, in rediscovering the sacred in our everyday reality. They are not four tasks. It is a fourfold task.

This is what I wanted to say at the Congreso Internacional de Espiritualidad Calasancia held in Bogotá in April this year.

Dedicated to Jaume Pallarolas and Javier Negro, Piarists in Europe
