MoreOur Mission
To seek the greater glory of God
We, the members of the North-West Africa Province of the Society of Jesus, realize, like our founder St. Ignatius, that we are weak and can do nothing good in the world except for the Spirit of God, which prompts us to works of faith and justice. Thus, like every other Jesuit formed in the spirit of the Spiritual Exercises, we strive to bring about the reign of God's kingdom in whatever ministry we are involved, and wherever we are missioned.
