Campus Ministry in schools of the Society of Jesus is understood as educational in nature. This evangelizing mission is centered on the person of Jesus of Nazareth and inspired by Ignatian Spirituality.
When we speak of a pastoral pedagogical approach aimed at building and strengthening a curricular educational pastoral program at Colegio San José, we are essentially referring to how we can creatively address the different dimensions involved in the integral formation of our students, from an identity-based and spiritual perspective described in our institutional horizon:
“Colegio San José is a bilingual educational community in the Colombian Caribbean region with a vision of global citizenship. We form students through integral excellence, inspired by the values of Ignatian spirituality, social commitment, peacebuilding, and care for our Common Home.”
THE MISSION IS CLEAR
To proclaim the Good News of Jesus. We consider ourselves a community that bears witness to the Gospel, committed to sharing Christian values in a constantly changing world. We strive to make our proposal for life explicit by presenting Jesus as someone who attracts, inspires, and gives meaning to our existence.

This program emphasizes the promotion of an active faith that is expressed through concrete acts of solidarity and justice. It recognizes that authentic faith cannot be separated from action in service of those most in need. Through activities such as charitable works, awareness campaigns, and humanitarian aid projects, students learn to live out their faith in an authentic way, responding to Jesus’ call to love and serve others.
Inspired by Ignatian Spirituality and Pedagogy, this course offers a unique experience of integral formation. It focuses on strengthening self-knowledge, spirituality, collaborative work, discernment, leadership, and social commitment.
