OVERVIEW<br />
<strong>Healing</strong> a <strong>Broken</strong> <strong>World</strong><br />
Applying the see-judge-act method <strong>of</strong> Catholic Social Teaching, the Task<br />
Force looked at the world today and tried to assess the situation as honestly<br />
and globally as possible. In order to properly ―judge‖ the results <strong>of</strong> the<br />
assessment, it applied the latest Jesuit reflections on the environment to the<br />
situation at hand. After a short historical excurse, Reconciliation with<br />
Creation is examined in the light <strong>of</strong> the Faith dimension <strong>of</strong> our mission, then<br />
the Justice dimension, and then dialogue with culture and religions, the two<br />
transversal dimensions. Six recommendations for Jesuit communities,<br />
universities and many other environments follow. In chapters seven and<br />
eight, an outline for a community retreat and some more (very) concrete<br />
suggestions are given.<br />
