JESUIT IDENTITY

Brebeuf Jesuit’s strong academic program follows more than 450 years of academic tradition.  The Jesuits, renowned for intellectual accomplishment spanning many centuries, have long believed that academic achievement grounded in religious faith, the dignity of the human person, and the need to educate and care for the entire person is the key to forming well-rounded individuals.

St. Ignatius Loyola gathered a small group of like-minded friends and together they formed the Compania de Jesus, the Society of Jesus, recognized by Pope Paul III in 1540.  Jesuits were often the first missionaries in India, Japan, and China, and among the first in the Americas.  At the heart of Jesuit vision is God’s love for the world.

St. Jean de Brebeuf
St. Jean de Brebeuf (1593-1649) was a Jesuit priest from Normandy, France, who traveled to Canada in 1625 to live with and evangelize the Huron Indians.  He acquired deep respect and knowledge of his beloved Hurons’ native ways.  He was martyred near Ste. Marie (near present day Midland, Ontario) during an attack by the Iroquois.
