Marianist Lay Communities are Christian communities at the service of the mission of the church in the world. We are part of the worldwide Marianist Family and are inspired by the charism of our founders.

Blessed William Joseph Chaminade throughout his life, and especially at the Shrine of Our Lady of the Pillar in Saragossa, Spain, received a powerful Marian inspiration. With Venerable Adèle de Batz de Trenquelléon and Venerable Marie Thérèse de Lamourous, he shaped this inspiration into a new missionary vision for the revitalization of the Church in France by means of establishing lay communities in alliance with Mary.

We consider our personal and community life as our primary means of evangelization, in service to the mission of the Church in the world. We seek to
collaborate in all missionary activities aiming at the multiplication of Christians and the development of a world that is more just and compassionate, more free and more interdependent.
