What do Jesuits do?

Jesuits are priests and brothers who work in parish and retreat ministry, in high schools and colleges, in refugee camps, with indigenous Australians, and in many other settings.

Jesuits may be found working as lawyers and doctors, psychologists and counselors, writers and journalists, theologians and philosophers, researchers and scientists. In short, Jesuits do all kinds of work. Their mission is everywhere and always the promotion of faith in Jesus Christ and the justice demanded by that faith. Jesuits seek to make Christ's Kingdom available to our times.
