CJI 2026 Christmas Appeal

This beautiful, evocative verse tells us that the birth of Jesus was a momentous event celebrated by all of God’s creation. His humble arrival as a baby born in a manger brought good news to the world. Psalm 96:11 illustrates how God is present in each of us and in our natural environment. In his encyclical Laudato Si, mi Signore, Pope Francis reinforces this interconnectedness.

Ecological Justice: It's not complicated

Canadian Jesuits International’s (CJI) 2026 campaign, Ecological Justice: It’s not complicated, highlights how care for our common home cannot be separated from human dignity, social justice and peace. It illustrates how environmental degradation disproportionately affects the poor and marginalized.

When I was a teenager, my mother would collect money from women at the parish and send it to a Jesuit in India -- that was my inspiration. By supporting the work of CJI, I get to continue my mother's legacy and meet some of the Jesuits at their events. This has given me further inspiration and pleasure.
