Welcome to the National Jesuit Brothers Committee Web Site!

Jesuit Brothers proclaims the good news of Jesus Christ by working in such fields as drama, technology, engineering, manual labor and social ministries. They staff retreat houses, mission centers and parishes. Brothers work as administrators, carpenters, computer technicians, chaplains, food managers, fundraisers, gardeners, printers, and retreat directors. In schools, they serve as teachers, infirmarians, librarians and coaches. These are only a few of the many ministries of the Jesuit Brother. What determines the choice of ministry? The changing needs of the Society of Jesus and the Church of the 21st Century.
