Our Work

Jesuit parishes share a distinct identity, stemming from the Jesuit “way of proceeding” and guided by the spirituality of St. Ignatius. Fr. Pedro Arrupe, SJ, 28th Superior General of the Society of Jesus, stressed that a Jesuit parish “should be a center where the Word of God is preached and inspires deep probing; where there is a sense of openness to local social, economic, and cultural problems.”

As far back as the late 18th century, Chief Shining Shirt of the Pend d’Oreille tribe in Mission Valley, Montana, had visions that one day men would come in black robes and teach important new truths about religion. That prophecy was fulfilled when, at the urging of Native people, Fr. Peter DeSmet, a Belgian Jesuit, worked to establish missions with the Flatheads in 1841, the Coeur d’Alenes in 1842, the Kalispels in 1844 and the Colviles in 1845.
