OUr implementation of the uaps

4 Universal Apostolic Preferences

Universal Apostolic Preferences (UAPs) are the fruit of a process of discernment lasting almost two years. All Jesuits were invited to take part and in addition our mission partners. It concluded with a confirmation from Pope Francis in a special meeting with Fr General Arturo Sosa. The Preferences give a horizon, a point of reference to the whole Society of Jesus. They captured our imaginations and awaken our desires. They unite us in our mission. The new Preferences are four areas vital for our world today. The Society of Jesus will pay special attention to them in the next ten years. We invite you to learn more and take action with us! We want to make a Gospel difference.

1st UAP

Show the way to God through the Spiritual Exercises and discernment.

2nd UAP

Walk with the poor, the outcasts of the world, those whose dignity has been violated, in a mission of reconciliation and justice.

3rd UAP

Accompany young people in the creation of a hope-filled future.

4th UAP

Collaborate, with Gospel depth, for the protection and renewal of God’s Creation.
