How to Subscribe to Jesuits.org Newsletters and Weekly Reflections

Updated

Jesuits.org offers two email sign-up paths on its homepage: a general newsletter sign-up and a separate subscription to “Now discern this,” an award-winning weekly reflections series sent straight to your inbox. Both are presented as email subscriptions; the site does not state a price for either, so treat cost and any login requirements as unconfirmed until you see the sign-up form itself.

What you can subscribe to

Offering What it is Where it appears on the page
Newsletter sign-up General updates from Jesuits.org “NEWSLETTER SIGN UP” block near the top of the latest content area
“Now discern this” Weekly reflections series, described as award-winning and delivered by email Its own block headed “Now discern this”
Newsletter prompt (repeat) A second invitation to receive newsletters “Sign up for our newsletters” near the bottom of the page

The page also links to a podcast section (“AMDG Podcasts”), but the subscription calls to action on the homepage are for email newsletters and the weekly reflections, not for podcast feeds.

How to subscribe

  1. Open jesuits.org in a browser.
  2. Scan the homepage for the “NEWSLETTER SIGN UP” block or the “Now discern this” block. Both sit in the main content column among the latest stories.
  3. Select the subscribe link or button in the block you want. The page text uses “Subscribe” for “Now discern this” and “Sign up” for the general newsletter.
  4. Complete the email form that opens. The homepage does not show the form fields, so expect to provide at least an email address and possibly a name.
  5. Confirm your subscription if you receive a verification email, then check your inbox for the first newsletter or reflection.

Expected result: you receive the general newsletter and/or the weekly “Now discern this” reflections by email. To verify: look for a confirmation message on screen after submitting, and for a welcome or confirmation email.

Common snags

  • Two similar buttons. “Subscribe” (under “Now discern this”) and “Sign up” (under the newsletter block) may lead to different lists. If you want only the weekly reflections, start with the “Now discern this” block.
  • No form on the homepage. The sign-up form likely opens on a separate page or in an overlay; if nothing happens, check whether your browser is blocking pop-ups.
  • Language options. The site header offers English, French, and Spanish, so a subscription page may appear in a different language depending on which link you follow.
  • No stated price. The page does not list a cost for either subscription. Do not assume it is free or paid until the sign-up form shows the terms.

If you want more than email

The homepage also points to other ways to stay connected: the AMDG Podcasts section, the Office of Justice and Ecology (“Put your faith into action”), and in-person resources such as Find a Jesuit Parish and Find a Jesuit Retreat Center. These are separate from the email subscriptions and are worth checking if a weekly email is not enough.
