Thank you for visiting the vocation web site of the Society
of Mary (Marianists), Province of the United States.

We are a Roman Catholic religious order of men present
in over 15 states, Puerto Rico, Ireland, Mexico, India
and Eastern Africa. We live and minister as equals, lay
brothers and priests, modeling our lives after Mary, the
Mother of Jesus.

We are particularly dedicated to forming persons and
communities of faith through our ministries of education,
parish work, social service, the arts and others. We seek
to be allied especially with youth and the poor.

Our Province is part of the worldwide Marianist
Family that includes lay persons, sisters,
brothers and priests in over thirty-eight
countries. We share in the dynamic vision of
our Founder, Blessed William Joseph
Chaminade. Father Chaminade’s legacy
challenges us to be diligent missionaries of
Mary, bringing Christ to the world.
