رسامة الأب ريمون عماد زكريا الكهنوتيّة
في يوم 23 أغسطس، تحت سماء القوصية بمحافظة أسيوط، وفي حضن كاتدرائيتها قلب يسوع الأقدس، عاش الجميع لحظات من الفرح الروحيّ، حيث أقيمت حفلة الرسامة الكهنوتية للأب ريمون عماد زكريا، ليُكرَس كاهنًا على مذبح الرب، ويبدأ مسيرته الجديدة في قلب رسالته الخدميّة. وقد تم ذلك بوضع يد صاحب النيافة الأنبا مرقس وليم، مطران ايبارشية القوصيّة للأقباط الكاثوليك.
My name is Víctor Ramos Talavera, I was born on July 23, 1984 in México. My father is Mario Ramos Torres, and my mother is Victoria Talavera Godinez. I have two brothers older than me. My oldest brother is Pablo, he passed away some years ago. My brother Homero, two years older than me, lives in Vancouver, Canada.
I studied philosophy at university. Some years later, in 2008, I got enrolled in the prenovitiate in México. One year later I went to the novitiate, later on I did my vows on July 30, 2011. I did my first studies in Guadalajara, México. At that time, I did my apostolate in a music project with a group of Mexican indigenous. I did regency in Tijuana, México at Iberoamericana Universtity where I tought Antropology, Ethics and Communication. I studied Theology in Berkeley, CA. in United States. At that time, I did my apostolate with the latino migrants communities and in San Quentin prison state in San Francisco.
I was ordained as priest on July 31, 2020 in Guadalajara, México. I worked one year as vicar in St. Jude parish in Torreón, México. I arrived in Alger on November 1, 2021. I am currently working at the University Cultural Center, where I collaborate in different activities related with arts and culture, especially in the expositions that we have in the gallery.
As a Jesuit, I have always felt called to dialogue with other cultures and religions through arts. For me, Algeria is a privileged place because it is giving me the opportunity to generate an artistic dialogue in which my position as Christian is as a minority. I hope, I will be able to serve the young Muslim university students, and artist, of Algiers with great joy.

Entre effondrements et recommencements : six ans de la Pastorale universitaire
L’histoire de la Province du Proche-Orient de la Compagnie de Jésus avec la Pastorale universitaire au Liban est ancienne. Dès 1979, le P. Saleh Nehmé, premier aumônier général, a posé les fondations de cette mission confiée par l’Assemblée des Patriarches et Évêques catholiques au Liban (APECL), mobilisant autour de lui plusieurs congrégations religieuses.
A Journey of Encounter and Gratitude
During my first month in Lebanon, I had the joy of working with the Jesuit Refugee Service (JRS) and the Arrupe Migrant Service. These experiences allowed me to encounter people from diverse backgrounds—Syrian, South Sudanese, and Filipino communities—whose stories and resilience touched me deeply.
