Jesuits

Wherever in the Church, even in the most difficult and extreme fields, in the crossroads of ideologies, in the front line of social conflict, wherever there has been and there is confrontation between the deepest desires of the human person and the perennial message of the Gospel, there have been, and there are, Jesuits.

For the Greater Glory of God

In 1540, St. Ignatius Loyola founded the Society of Jesus as a religious order of the Roman Catholic Church. Its members would come to be known as JESUITS. Today nearly 118 priests and brothers in the Delhi Province along with 18,000 worldwide are serving God's people as Jesuits.

St. Ignatius of Loyola

St. IgnatiusIgnatius Loyola was born in 1491 into a wealthy noble family. He was educated as a knight. Like many young men from his background, Loyola joined the army. In May 1521, he was wounded at the Battle of Pamplona while fighting against France. While Loyola recovered from his wounds he underwent a spiritual conversion. After reading about the lives of the Saints and of Christ, Loyola concluded that his life had been a sham and he decided to reform it. After claiming to have seen a vision of the Virgin Mary and the baby Jesus he went to the shrine of Our Lady at Montserrat in Aragon and became a hermit living in a cave near Mantua in 1522.

Thus fired by the passion to serve the Lord and His people he set ablaze the whole world with love.  Ignatius Loyola's Jesuits transofrmed the Roman Catholic Church in terms of quality and they became a vital part of the Counter-Reformation.  St. Ignatius Loyola -  the pilgrim and the founder of the Jesuits continues to serve as a model of finding God in all things...

Our Mission

Challenges to our mission today:
Sent to the frontiers

 
 

In this new world
of instant communication and digital technology ,
of worldwide markets ,
and of universal aspiration for peace and well being ,


we are faced with growing tensions and paradoxes

We live in a culture that shows partiality to autonomy and the present
and yet we have a world so much in need of building a future in solidarity ;

we have better means of communication
but often experience isolation and exclusion ;

some have greatly benefited ,
 while others have been marginalized and excluded ;

our world is increasingly transnational ,
 and yet it needs to affirm and protect local and particular identities;

scientific knowledge has reached the deepest mysteries of life ,
and yet the very dignity of life itself
and the world we live in are threatened.

In this global world marked by such profound changes
we want to deepen our understanding of
          the call to serve faith,
       promote justice
       and dialogue with culture and other religions

in the light of the apostolic mandate to establish right relationships

             with God, with one another, and with creation


 [35 th General Congregation Society of Jesus, 2008, Decree 3]

The Delhi Province   
The Delhi Jesuit Province extends from Himachal Pradesh in the north through Punjab, Haryana, Uttrakhand to Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh in the south, an extensive area in the Indian Subcontinent. This is an impressive extent of vast area. Taken from the Patna Province and established as a Region in 1988 with 43 Jesuits basically from the mother province, the Delhi Province has quietly but steadily grown in numbers to reach 118, with 13 young men in the Novititate and 44 Scholastics in the various stages of formation, 57 Priests and 4 Brothers. 

With several vocations coming in regularly from diverse parts of the country, with our own novitiate, Pre-novitiate, and Candidate House, with our prestigious institutes of education, spirituality centre and social centres, and several parishes entrusted to our care, the Province has grown remarkably with much missionary zeal and apostolic vivacity.

We are still men on the move, ready to change occupation, method - whatever will advance our mission in the Church of teaching Jesus Christ and preaching His Good News - a radical service of the implications of faith in a world that desperately seeks for faith and justice. In all that we do, like our Jesuit companions around the world, we are committed for the cause of His Kingdom.
