Grace is the word that seems to characterize my Jesuit life. I have seen it everywhere in my life, before and after entering the Society of Jesus, but now in retrospect it becomes ever clearer. My family, my friends, the Society itself, my ministries, the communities in which I have lived—all represent the Lord’s enduring care of me. It is His faithful companionship of me down through the years, in every situation, that has made His presence something I continue to rely on more and more.
