In honor of his 80 years as a Jesuit in May 2021, the Philippine Province of the Society of Jesus is pleased to announce the Fr Roque Ferriols SJ Suscipe Fund.
The Suscipe Fund named after the famous prayer, “Receive, O Lord” of St Ignatius of Loyola at the end of the Spiritual Exercises, is launched not only to honor our Jesuit Jubilarians but also to raise funds for the support of our infirm and elderly Jesuits. With an increasing number of them needing special and individual attention, the Philippine Province is taking active steps to ensure support for their care.
The fund is made possible through the generosity of Mr. Manuel V Pangilinan.
Fr Provincial Primitivo Viray Jr. SJ was extremely gratified by Mr Pangilinan’s response, saying in his note of gratitude, “Your continued generosity will greatly help in defraying one of the Society’s biggest expense items and ensuring that our beloved Lolo Jesuits like Fr Ferriols and Fr Catalino Arevalo (also celebrating 80 years in the Society) continue to receive the best care.”
On his part, Mr Pangilinan stated “It would take a truly hardened heart to turn deaf to this request. Happy to do this.” Mr Pangilinan has often stated that Fr. Ferriols, his Ateneo de Manila Philosophy professor, taught him many lessons that remain with him to this day.
Mr. Pangilinan’s donation serves as the Suscipe Fund’s seed contribution and it is hoped that other friends and benefactors will likewise contribute in prayerful gratitude for the lives and missions of our Lolo Jesuits.
