About Us

Through all the ways that we live out our faith and especially through our support for those who are sent out with good news Jesuit Mission friends support the distinctive contribution that Jesuits make.
We promote work for poverty alleviation in the developing world and the establishment and ongoing development of the Society of Jesus in areas of great need.
