America Magazine features an interview with Jesuit Superior General Peter Hans Kolvenbach:

Q.: As general, what changes have you seen in the Society?

Kolvenbach
: Quoting the Holy Father, I would say that the Society of Jesus has become more spiritual, more ecclesial and more apostolic.

Well that's a relief.
