Dear ExCo members and national delegates to the FEAMC,
It is with great joy and fraternal esteem that I extend to Rev. Ján Ďačok SJ, our heartfelt congratulations on his appointment as Ecclesiastical Assistant to the FEAMC, on behalf of the Executive Committee and all members of the European Federation of Catholic Medical Associations.I am deeply grateful to JozefGlasa for having recommended Prof. Ďačok as a candidate therefore witnessing his pastoral commitment and competences
in the field of medicine and medical ethics. Jozef’s support has confirmed us the pastoral and academic qualities that make his appointment a great blessing for our Federation.
We are also grateful to the Ecclesiastical Assistant of FIAMC for having recognized in Prof. Ďačok the pastoral, academic, and spiritual qualities necessary for this important mission. FEAMC welcomes Prof. Ďačok with great openness and fraternal collaboration. We are confident that his theological expertise, his pastoral sensitivity, and his familiarity with the healthcare apostolate will be of great benefit to our Federation and to the broader mission of evangelization within the medical profession.
We look forward to working closely with him in the years ahead, certain that under his guidance, the spiritual dimension of our Federation will be deepened and strengthened. May the Holy Spirit inspire his ministry and his service to the medical community throughout Europe.
Entrusting his new mission to the intercession of St. Luke the Evangelist, our patron saint, and Our Lady, Salus Infirmorum, we assure our prayers and our full support.
Yours in Christ,
Rok Čivljak
