In 1987 Pope Francis published a small collection of Letters by Jesuit Superiors General written in the eighteenth century at a time of grave suffering for the Society of Jesus as it faced suppression by the Vatican.
Now Pope Francis has authorized this new edition, to which are added his own reflections in a time of renewed suffering for the people of God-.
These documents outlined a spiritual path for the church as a whole in times of confusion and tribulation.
