Welcome to the home page of the Canisius Jesuit Community! We are a religious community of the New York Province of the Society of Jesus. Our Community has 25 members, most of whom work in one of the three Jesuit educational apostolates in Buffalo:
Many Community members do additional pastoral work in the Diocese of Buffalo. All of these men work to fulfill the Jesuit goals of serving faith and promoting justice in dialog with diverse cultures and religions. Further, they labor with their colleagues to develop “men and women for and with others” in all three of their ministries. In so doing, they follow the ideals of the Community’s namesake and patron saint, the 16th Century Dutch Jesuit Peter Canisius who showed great zeal in promoting education and the Catholic faith.
Most of the Jesuits live in Loyola Hall on the Canisius College campus. It has been home for the Jesuits, since it was first built in 1949.
