The Society of Jesus, (the Jesuits) in response to the needs of the Church, and to seek the universal good and the greater glory of God have put forth Universal Apostolic Preferences to direct the Society’s work in the current decade.
Saint Louis University joins the Society of Jesus in accepting the Universal Apostolic Preferences as part of our mission to contribute to the transformation of society in the spirit of the Gospels.
