Jesuit Network
The Company of Jesus is a religious order that promotes the faith and works for justice through the dialogue in a pluralistic and challenging world.
It was founded in 1540 at the University of Sorbonne, Paris (France), by a group of seven professors – among them the priest Ignatius of Loyola. The new Order was born based on an innovative and caring attitude in the field of religion in that time.
Under the motto "Staying in the world by serving others, even with the uncertainty of saving" , the Jesuits played an important role in forming responsible citizens in the course of its history, establishing educational institutions in their various missions around the world, with particular attention to the Americas and Europe.
