Welcome,

Thank you sincerely for your interest in the Jesuits and in partnering with the Jesuits. Whether you've been a partner of the Jesuits for fifty years or are just learning about the Jesuits, welcome.

I hope you've had an opportunity to explore our website. If you haven't, I think you'll like what you find. The web site is filled with stories of the inspiring work of the Jesuits. There are countless stories from Partners magazine. You can also find interesting stories about how different Jesuits decided to enter the Society of Jesus on the vocations page. We’ve also collected videos that have been produced by or about the Chicago Province Jesuits over the last 15 years or so into an online gallery. As you explore this site, I hope you’ll be motivated to become a Jesuit partner. In the ten years that I have been working with the Chicago Province Jesuits, I consider it a privilege to witness how partners like you make possible the Jesuits’ wonderful service “To the Greater Glory of God.”

The Jesuits’ rely on the prayerful and generous support of Partners to make service to God’s People a reality. Whether you're a graduate of a Jesuit school, a parishioner at a Jesuit parish, a family member of a Jesuit, a retreatant at a Jesuit retreat house, the reader of a book written by a Jesuit, or a friend of a Jesuit, there is an opportunity for you to partner with the Jesuits and become part of their work. Jesuit ministries here in the U.S. and in 126 other countries rely on your support. The training and formation of young Jesuits and the care of elder Jesuits relies, too, on your prayers and generosity.

Please consider partnering with the Jesuits. If you'd like to learn more about how you can contribute to Jesuit ministries in Chicago, Cincinnati, Indianapolis, Kentucky, India, Nepal, and Peru, please feel free to contact me or anyone else on the development staff.

Sincerely,

Tim Freeman
Provincial Assistant for Development and Public Information
