College is named after St. Ignatius of Loyola, a saint who was born in Loyola in North Spain in 1491. He at first pursued a military career. In 1521, in the battle of Pamplona against King Francis I of France, he was struck by a cannon shot that broke his leg.
During his long convalescence at Loyola, he read devotional books including “The Life of Christ” and “The Flower of the Saints”. This led to a deep interior conversion and a desire to serve God.
After recovering, Ignatius undertook a pilgrimage to the Holy Land and later pursued studies in philosophy and theology. He gathered companions in Paris, laying the foundation of the Society of Jesus, which was approved by Pope Paul III in 1540.
Ignatius’ vision emphasized excellence, discernment, and service. His legacy continues today through Jesuit institutions worldwide, shaping minds and hearts for the greater good of humanity.
St. Ignatius’ vision was rooted in one profound mission – to seek and find God in all things. His passion for education, compassion for others, and unwavering faith gave rise to an enduring spiritual tradition.
Today, that vision lives on through Jesuit institutions worldwide, guiding minds, shaping hearts, and inspiring individuals to live with purpose, integrity, and service.
In its effort to extend service in various fields, the Society of Jesus, M.P. Province, in response to the demands of the people, decided to open Loyola College at Kunkuri. Excellence and transformation remain central to its mission.
The College assists in producing men and women of right principles, personally appropriate, and responsive to the signs of the times, bringing about intellectual, spiritual, and social transformation.
Ignatius believed knowledge must serve humanity. Jesuit education nurtures intellectual depth, integrity, and compassion.
Rooted in prayer and action, Jesuit education encourages finding God through service and reflection.
The Ignatian approach helps individuals reflect, decide, and act for the greater good — “Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam.”
Jesuit institutions form a worldwide network devoted to justice, inclusion, and human dignity.
