Get to know us

Becoming a Jesuit takes a long time, from entering the order to final vows can take nearly 12-15 years. The focus of Jesuit formation is to prepare priests and brothers who are well-educated, trained in the Spiritual Exercises and have the skills to minister in a diverse and ever-changing environment.

Development sees the need, not the cause

The formation of young men is one of the most important ministries of the Jesuits in Africa and Madagascar, as it is an investment in the future – ensuring well-educated, spiritually formed Jesuits trained to take on the challenges of the various ministries to which they are called.

Become part of the Jesuit mission, and impact through giving to our various ministries. You can also help by sharing about what we do as Jesuits, and help us in advancing the spreading of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. You can also be part of our prayer network.

St. Ignatius of Loyola’s own experience of development was anchored on partnerships and relationships, always advancing the mission of the Society of Jesus. Help us continue in his footsteps in order to meet the needs of Jesuits in training and our various ministries.
