Eh, not to worry. The median age for Jesuits worldwide is probably close to 70 years of age. Demographics is destiny. The Lord gave the charism of perpetuity only to His Church, not to any specific subset. Everything else, including the spiritual descendants of Loyola, have a shelf life with a valid expiration date. So, be at peace.
Ironically enough, Russia provided the Jesuits with shelter at this time.
