Jesuit Newsletter, Summer 2022, Office of Advancement

In this edition, we share stories of the ordination to the priesthood of Adam Lalonde, SJ, and a profile of Father Leonard Altilia, SJ, who is known to a good many of you, I’m certain.

We are pleased to share with you the Summer 2021 edition of the Jesuit Office of Advancement Newsletter. In this edition, you will hear stories of Jesuits, Benefactors, and Jesuit Apostolic works. But you won’t read much about events. Curtailed by the pandemic, the Jesuits genuinely miss the opportunity to meet you in person and look forward to the (hopefully soon) return to in-person activities

A much-needed renovation is taking place at René Goupil House, the Jesuit infirmary in Pickering, ON after it experienced an outbreak of COVID-19 last year.

The last few months were a time when it was easy to become hopeless and to despair. But we must always remember there is always hope.

In this issue, we feature a profile of Gail and Bruce Young, valued and committed supporters of the Jesuit ministry in Canada, who share some of the reasons for their commitment to the Jesuits.

I hope you enjoy this newsletter, which highlights the many and varied ministries of the Jesuits in English Canada.

In this issue, you will see some of what our ordinands have been preparing for.

We Jesuits have a new Father General and we are excited!

In this newsletter you can read about the bonds that exist between us and the people all over Canada and across the world.

Jesuits are excited about what the coming year will bring. In October 2016, a General Congregation will be held where we will choose a new General Superior for the Jesuits all over the world.

We offer you the ordination pictures as a reminder of the day when new messengers of God entered your life and the life of the whole Church.
