To defend the pope and the Catholic Church using learning
and education. It was founded on August
15, 1534 by St. Ignatius De Loyola who gathered a group of talented individuals
who used their abilities in their preaching and were very eloquent and
energetic in their campaign to spread the Catholic faith. They’re efforts were successful as they were
able to retain Bohemia, Hungary, Poland and other countries into the Catholic
faith. Many were advisers and confessors
to kings and rulers and their missionary work contributed to the spread of the
Catholic faith.
