All students and young professionals are welcome to join us to meet other young believers and deepen our faith together. We gather after the 5:15 English Mass on Saturdays for dinner, a presentation/discussion or activity, and common prayer. We also offer possibilities for retreats, spiritual and theological formation, and day trips together. Interested? Reach out to us at huis.livingstones [at] gmail.com or speak with Bastiaan van Rooijen, a member of the local Jesuit community. Upcoming events are also shared on our Facebook and Instagram. All events will be in English.
