Description
With an Introduction by Peter McVerry SJ 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.
Best-selling author Brian Grogan SJ, whose life has been deeply influenced by Arrupe, has written Pedro Arrupe SJ: Mystic With Open Eyes.
With a foreword by Peter McVerry SJ, this booklet is a guide to the extraordinary life of a great-souled human being.
Arrupe belongs to the world because he had a profound love for everyone, especially the neediest.
This succinct account of his life, 1907-1991, highlights his dynamic influence on the Church of today as it labours to build a civilisation of justice and love.
