Adaptability is the hallmark of the Jesuit charism. From early on, they spread rapidly, to the Far East, to North and South America, to Africa and eventually to Australasia. This new collection tells the stories of a few of these Jesuits, from different continents and eras – their successes and failures, their frustrations and hopes – in the belief that their commitment and struggles will prove inspirational once again today.
