Description
Why might this man be declared a saint? Pedro Arrupe, twenty-eighth Superior General of the Society of Jesus, re-founded the Jesuits and re-cast Ignatian spirituality for our times. He was a prisoner of Imperial Japan, a first responder when the atom bomb fell on Hiroshima, a pioneer of Catholic social justice and a founder of the Jesuit Refugee Service. His mind and heart were shaped by the Second Vatican Council. Few people-outside religious life-know his story. But now that the process for his beatification is underway, he will become known across the Catholic world and beyond. This booklet is a guide to the extraordinary life of a great-souled human being. - from Amzon
