Letter to the Society on the Social Apostolate (January 2000)
Main Article Content
Abstract
This Father General’s Letter is a great event for the social apostolate. It appears mid–way through the Social Apostolate Initiative, at the beginning of the Jubilee year and on the 50th anniversary of Father Janssens’ Instruction on the Social Apostolate. It touches on many key elements of the Jesuit way of proceeding in the social apostolate itself and the social dimension of the entire mission. Summing up the process so far, the Letter serves as a kind of mid–way report on the “Initiative”, and it renews the invitation to join in the process underway. Even more importantly, it sets the direction for the social apostolate during the coming months and years, by identifying the key practical points which are now important for us to work seriously on together.
