How?
Read this.
"Though I have all faith
so that I could remove mountains...
... and have not love, I am nothing.
And though I bestow all my goods
to feed the poor...
... and though I give my body
to be burned...
... and have not love,
it profiteth me nothing.
Love suffereth long and is kind.
Love envieth not.
Love vaunteth not itself,
is not puffed up.
When I was a child,
I spake as a child...
... I understood as a child,
I thought as a child.
But when I became a man,
I put away childish things.
But now abideth faith, hope, love...
These three.
But the greatest of these is love. "
They've agreed.
If you're going to become a Jesuit,
you must accept my orders...
...as if they were the orders
of a commander. Can you do that?
Yes, Father.
Let us pray for our brother Rodrigo.
Christ, you led Father Ignatius to
renounce the snares of this world...
...and to put on the livery
of labor and humiliation.
Now we ask your blessing on Rodrigo
as we welcome him into our community.
Teach him to be generous,
to labor and not to count the cost...
...to serve with no reward,
save the doing of your will.
Amen.
Welcome home, brother.
This seeking to create
a paradise on earth...
... how easily it offends.
Your Holiness is offended...
... because it may distract from
that paradise which comes hereafter.
The Spanish and Portuguese kings
are offended...
... because a paradise of the poor
is seldom pleasing to those who rule.
And the settlers here are offended
for the same reason.
So it was this burden I carried
to South America:
To satisfy the Portuguese wish
... to satisfy the Spanish desire that
this would do them no harm...
... to satisfy Your Holiness...
... that these monarchs would threaten
no more the power of the church...
... and to ensure for you all...
... that the Jesuits here could no longer
deny you these satisfactions.
Lve spent half my life
waiting for Rome.
Stop playing with that.
- What time is it?
- Calm down.
Ten to.
Let me see how the children are doing.
Good.
Twenty-four.
Thirty-nine.
Over there, please.
- Those are Guarani?
- Yes, Your Eminence.
- Extraordinary.
- What?
Very difficult to tell
what they're thinking.
- Have you found this, Seor Hontar?
- I have.
I had that reaction when I first came,
Your Eminence.
Pretty creature.
She'll fetch a lot of money in Lisbon.
Yes. Well, perhaps
she doesn't want to go to Lisbon.
Perhaps not.
Well, Your Eminence,
as to the missions...
We expect no political difference between
the Papacy and Spain and Portugal?
Between ourselves, Your Eminence,
