Find a Parish

There are 66 Jesuit parishes around the United States, located in inner cities, suburbs and rural outposts, as well as on college campuses and Native American reservations. A Jesuit parish is guided by the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius Loyola, which encourages people to reflect on their experiences and to discern Godā€™s presence in their lives. Such parishes aim to nurture lay leadership as well as personal faith, and are committed to a ā€œfaith that does justiceā€ by way of solidarity with the poor and dedication to the greater good. A full directory is listed on the .

Make a Retreat

Retreatants have the opportunity to pursue directed, guided, and/or silent prayer in many of the centers.

Publications

America Magazine
is the leading Catholic journal of opinion in the United States. First published in 1909, America magazine is known across the Catholic world for its unique brand of opinion and analysis. From theology and spirituality to politics, international relations, arts and letters, and the economy and social justice, Americaā€™s coverage spans the globe, telling the stories that matter most to the church and the world.

Busted Halo
is a unique media resource that utilizes a relevant and accessible voice to help people understand the Catholic faith, put it into practice in their everyday lives, and share it with others. Busted Halo is a ministry of The Paulist Fathers. The Paulist Fathers are a religious order of Roman Catholic priests ā€” the first to be founded by an American citizen ā€” whose mission territory is the United States.

The Jeusit Post
is a project of Jesuits in formation. Nearly all of the contributors are not-yet-ordained Jesuits studying theology or philosophy, or working in our Jesuit ministries. Several recently ordained Jesuits also contribute to the work. On the whole, about 50 Jesuits are currently involved in the project. In addition to the website, TJP maintains a very active social media presence, contributing to the webā€™s best conversations about faith and culture ā€” whether it touches on politics, theology, Church news, debates about belief and secularity, or really anything else.
