UAPs – Fr General issues an Urgent Call
After five years of the Universal Apostolic Preferences, the way forward
Five years ago, the Society of Jesus received four Universal Apostolic Preferences as a mission from the Holy Father. Pope Francis underlined the first as fundamental. “Showing the way to God through the Spiritual Exercises and discernment” is, without a doubt, the cornerstone of our life-mission. Finding the way to God and walking along it at every stage of our life is the condition without which it is impossible to show others the way to liberation, truth, and fullness of life.
