Fr Zulo receives Luceat Lux Lifetime Achievement Award
Fr Ismael Zuloaga (CHN) was conferred the Luceat Lux Lifetime Achievement Award in March for his vision and leadership in making Xavier School the leading Catholic school it is today. At the award ceremony held at Xavier School, Greenhills West, San Juan City, the Philippines on March 11, 2011, Fr Zuloaga, the school’s director from 1965 to 1985, was described as a true son of Ignatius, father to generations of Xaverians, and inspiration to the entire Xavier School community.
A group of volunteers from Tokyo spent the last week of March in Sendai, helping out at the emergency centre set up by the Sendai Diocese with the cooperation of Caritas Japan to coordinate humanitarian aid operations in Sendai. Among them was Fr Yasunori Yamauchi, one of our newly ordained Jesuits in Japan. He shares his reflection here.
