The Council of Trent was called by the Pope so that all of the Bishops of the world could address the problems that were in the Church in the sixteenth century. The Jesuit Order was created because St. Ignatius of Loyola received a call from God to follow Him in this way.

Why role did the Jesuits play in the catholic reformation?

.Catholic AnswerThe Society of Jesus didn't really have a role at the Council of Trent, they were just getting organized as a religious order and they were concentrating on preaching and missionary work - and recruiting and training new Jesuits. The Council of Trent was composed of Bishops of the Church, at the beginning of the Council I don't think that any Jesuits had been ordained Bishops.

Describe the counter reformation at the Council of Trent and the role of the Jesuits?

.Catholic AnswerYour terms are a little confused. The Council of Trent, technically, was the beginning of what protestants refer to as the "counter reformation" better known as the Catholic reform. The Society of Jesus was formed several years before the Council of Trent got underway, but really didn't become a force to be dealt with until decades later. St. Ignatius started the Society of Jesus in 1540 (the Council of Trent ran from 1545-65) and the Popes in 1571 and 1585 issued bulls in support of the Society. By the way, in the sixteenth centuries, the only people who used the word "Jesuits" were people who didn't like them, it was a term used for abuse. The Jesuits had a two fold goal: education and returning the heretics to the faith, and preaching the Gospel in mission lands.
