Sarah E. Signorino, director of mission & identity, shakes hands with Pope Francis who met with the Social Justice and Ecology Congress last week.

Signorino was one of 21 delegates from the U.S.-Canadian Province invited to participate in the Social Justice and Ecology Secretariat. The conference gathered Jesuits and lay collaborators, alike, in Rome to recall past achievements, milestones and lessons learned, and to reflect on and discern the challenges faced today in order to fulfill human rights and the fundamental freedoms of people around the world.
