This week the 2024 Conference planning committee confirmed that Fr. Abdon Rwandekwe, SJ, will join us to present his thoughts on Eucharist, Mission, and Reconciliation from his perspective as a survivor of the Rwandan genocide. We are delighted that he plans to join us in person for the entire conference.
Fr. Abdon Rwandekwe is a Jesuit priest from the Rwanda-Burundi Region of the Society of Jesus. Currently, he is pursuing a doctorate in “Organization and Leadership” in the School of Education at the University of San Francisco, CA. Alongside his studies, he serves as Assistant Director of the Development Office of the Rwanda-Burundi Region in search of funds to assist Jesuit seminarians in Rwanda and Burundi.
Fr Abdon shared his family's devestating experience during the genocide and civil war and its impact on his vocation. Check out the episode!
