Days of Prayer/Reflection

HISTORY of CAMPION CENTER

1921 - The Grant Walker estate on Concord Road, Weston, was bought as the site for a scholasticate (a philosophy and theology school for training Jesuits).

1924 - Ground broken for the new building; only the north wing and the main part as far as the rotunda were completed; a temporary wall closed off the end.

1927 - Three successive days in May an "Open House" was held, to show friends and benefactors the newly completed remainder of the building.

1968 - Weston College at Weston was closed and the theologate was moved to Cambridge as the Weston Jesuit School of Theology.

1975 - Campion Center was opened, a Residence and Renewal Center. Here at Campion the Jesuits and their associates are committed to two main apostolates; the care of the sick and elderly Jesuits and the apostolate of spiritual renewal.
