Jesuit Novices

Each year, from September to December, we work with the Jesuit Novitiate to train Jesuit novices in the work of Jail Ministry. We are incredibly grateful for the 30+ years of Jesuit Novices who have shared their gifts with us.

2022 Novices

A huge welcome to James Dooley and Luke Olsen, our Jesuit Novices for 2022, who are devoting their time to Jail Ministry this fall. James and Luke have been visiting people in the jail and answering the free phone calls that come in our office from people in the Justice Center. Their authenticity, warmth, and depth has been an incredible gift. Luke and James continue a 30+-year tradition of Jesuit Novices who have shared their gifts with us. We are grateful for the joy and enthusiasm they bring.
