Poveda Spirituality Center

Poveda Spirituality Program

The POVEDA Spirituality Program forms persons who look at and act in the world with Christian criteria and are able to work with others in transforming society, who, like Jesus, are persons for all. It adopts the pastoral cycle approach, see (ver) – pray (orar) – judge (juzgar) – act (actuar) in its approach of being and doing in society.

The Campus Ministry, under the Poveda Spirituality Center, responds to the spiritual and pastoral needs of the whole institution and promotes spiritual growth of every member in the community. It provides the worship dimension of the faith development of the students and other members of the school community.

Social Action Programs

“Social outreach is a consequence of Christian faith, shown in different ways: seeing society with the eyes of faith, letting ourselves be challenged by it, listening to the needs and pain of people, radically changing self-centered attitudes and behavior. Our goal is to change students’ indifference into caring attention and commitment to others, whether that be to individuals, groups, countries of good causes.” (Handing on the Faith in a Teresian School. 2011)

The Social Action Programs are venues for the Povedans to foster critical awareness and instill the values of initiative, service and justice.It provides the moral dimension of the faith development of the students and other members of the school community.
