Our Identities

JMJ Cross.. The Cross symbolizes
Love: Christ chose to die for us, sinners, and this choice is made in love.God showed His great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners (Romans 5:8).
Humility: Christ’s death was an act of His wilful humility. Christ hung on the cross with a purpose. Jesus humbled Himself in obedience and died a criminal death on the Cross (Phi 2:7-8).
Sacrifice: Laying aside His Divinity, He was born a helpless baby, completely dependent upon others. During His public ministry, He faithfully carried out God’s plan all the way to His death on the cross. (Romans 12:1–2).
Cross has two heart symbols:

1. The Sacred Heart of Jesus
2. Immaculate heart of Mary.
3. Soc JMJ – the name of the Society is printed.
4. IHS – Jesuits’ Symbol because our founder was a Jesuit and we follow the Ignatian
