Jesuit Alumni

Jesuit Alumni Ministries

BSC Jesuit Alumni aims to form a community with others like you who wish to continue the Jesuit experience you cherished at your school, parish, retreat center, or service organization. Learn more at the Blessed Sacrament Jesuit Alumni landing page.

The Jesuit Friends and Alumni Network USA (JFAN-USA) serves as a national resource for Jesuit-educated alumni, parishioners and friends who share a commitment to the Jesuit mission. 

JFAN supports local chapters in their efforts to offer events for those who have been educated by the Jesuits, are associated with a Jesuit ministry or institution, a friend of the Jesuits, and others who want to learn more about Ignatian spirituality.

Christian Astran

As a Catholic Educator formed in the Ignatian tradition, I believe that everyone has the potential to become a leader and agent for change in creating a just world. Regardless of how someone identifies they deserve the ability to identify and strive for their own unique definition of success and fulfillment. It is my goal as an educator to help my students and colleagues achieve their own individual definition of success in their personal and professional lives. As a theologian specializing in the fields of young adult spiritual development, digitial sacredness, and ecological education. I am constantly striving everyday to help youth discover a hope filled future!
