Books by S J Ernesto Fernandez-Travieso

Ernesto Fernandez Travieso, S.J. was born in 1939 and grew up in Cuba during turbulent historical times. In exile, he entered the Jesuit community of priests and received his formation in different parts of the world ending with the doctorate degree in Spiritual theology which he received from the Gregorian University in Rome. For twenty years he was chaplain and spiritual director for medical students at Creighton, a Jesuit university in Omaha, Nebraska. In 1973 he established the Institute for Latin American Concern (ILAC) in the Dominican Republic, a mission that unites the hard work of poor rural communities with that of volunteers from foreign nations that want to help these communities.In 2006 and 2007 Father Travieso was responsible for International Relations for Latin America at Vatican Radio and disseminated many of his works in this way. These «REFLECTIONS» propose us to renew personal and social responsibility by integrating faith with reason. Only the spiritual integrating the mind with the heart will save us from the "dehumanization" that threatens to destroy the world turning us all into heavy, violent and stubborn rhinoceroses.
