Abstract

This article traces the circumstances of the return and beginnings of the Jesuits to Lahore, Pakistan after centuries of absence, to the establishment of the Jesuit Schools. Given the Socio-economic condition of Christians in Pakistan, and the proliferation and status of ‘Private Schools’ on the one hand and the low standard of the Public Schools in the country, on the other hand, the article argues that the Jesuit Schools are a service to the poor and the needy and not a ‘business’ as some Private Schools run by certain NGOs are. Further, it points out that given the Islamic context of the country, the Jesuit Schools contribute towards a better inter-religious relation which argues well for the future of the land.
