Jesuit Vocations - Joining the Society of Jesus
What's In Your Heart?
Sometimes our hearts desire more than a job. Sometimes our hearts desire companions on the spiritural journey. Are you thinking about becoming a priest or brother? If so, the Jesuits offer many joyful opportunities for service. We would be honored to hear what you feel in your heart.

A Jesuit "without imagination and creativity would be a disaster."
Part One: What do you ask of the Jesuits?
Part Two: Has spirituality been replaced by ideology?
Part Three: Is there too much diversity in the Society, in the Church?

The Future of Religious Life, by Timothy Radcliffe, OP: "Our vocation as religious is more important than ever before. We are called to be signs of hope for humanity. We can only be a sign of hope for a generation that is living through a crisis if we are able to confront our crises with joy and serenity, as moments of grace and new life."
