La formation jésuite

Troisième An

La formation jésuite ne se termine pas avec l’ordination.

Le troisième an est un temps de ressourcement. Le jésuite se replonge dans les documents fondateurs et dans l’histoire de la Compagnie de Jésus. Comme au noviciat, le « tertiaire » fait les Exercices spirituels de saint Ignace de Loyola. Pendant ce qu’on appelle « la grande retraite », le tertiaire jésuite prie en silence pendant 30 jours et laisse le Seigneur agir sur lui. Le troisième an dure habituellement neuf moi et comprend de la formation spirituelle et du ministère.
