AMDG: A Jesuit Podcast

Profiles in Mission: Fr. John Sheehan, SJ

Since the time of Ignatius, the Jesuits have been on mission. The legacies of Jesuit missionaries like Francis Xavier and Matteo Ricci inspire generation after generation of Jesuits to journey to the margins, to accompany the excluded and to work for a more just, peaceful world. Today’s Jesuits are no different. In part two of our three-part series, the Jesuit Mission in Jordan, Eric Clayton sits down with Fr. John Sheehan, SJ, at the end of his three years in Jordan. Fr. John shares how he went from acting in NYC to becoming a Jesuit and ultimately serving in Nigeria, Jordan and more. Learn more about the Jesuits in Jordan by visiting jesuits.org/jordan.
