Meditating in memory of Fr. Pedro Arrupe
Abstract
Fr. Henry Volken, S.J., then Social Justice Secretary in Rome, introduced the Promotio Iustitiae no. 46, quoting Fr. Pedro Arrupe’s final address, Rooted and Grounded in Love, which serves as his spiritual testament. In that remarkable text, Fr. Arrupe redefines the faith-justice mission as "Faith-Agape-Justice." This vision urges Jesuits to return to the heart of Ignatian spirituality—God as Agape.
