Ignatius Loyola founded the Society of Jesus, commonly known as the Jesuits, with the help of six companions: Francis Xavier, Peter Faber, Alfonso Salmerón, Nicolás Bobadilla, Diego Laynez, and Juan Codure. They came together in 1534, pledging to serve the Church and spread the Christian faith. Their collective vision and commitment to education, missionary work, and spiritual formation played a crucial role in establishing the Jesuit order.
