Our Work

In the United States, there are 66 Jesuit parishes.  A Jesuit parish is guided by the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius Loyola, which encourages people to reflect on their experiences and to discern God’s presence in their lives. Such a parish aims to nurture lay leadership as well as personal faith. It is also committed to “the faith that does justice” by way of solidarity with the poor and dedication to the greater good.

Jesuit parishes are located in inner cities, suburbs and rural outposts, as well as on college campuses and Native American reservations.
