Barcelona: 200.000 university students.

Supposedly, University is the center of formation and investigation, reflection and knowledge that must prepare students as future parts of our society. But spanish students are drawn to an even more careless/conformity, uncertainty and disappointment attitudes.

In regards to spirituality:

- there is a general rejection of God (mostly due to the wrong image they have of him)
- there is a spiritual and intellectual laziness (it’s easier to live like everyone lives, than to look inside us and around us to seek answers)
- but there is also a real hunger… Our task is to speak about Hope. About lives with a purpose. About life, a life in full. To talk about Jesus.

We work with students so they can discover by themselves the Jesus of the Bible; so they can discover that God is also part of their formation; so they can know him; so they can learn to use their lives to serve.
As a student I actively participated in GBU (University Bible Groups), and finally began to work with them part time in 2003. I don’t regret it! It is worthwhile!
