The Marianist Community in Ireland welcomes you to this site which explores our religious vocation.  If you are exploring a call to religious life, we hope the site will prompt you to contact us by phone, email or indeed, letter.  We promise to do our best to accompany you in your discernment.

The Society of Mary (Marianists) is a Roman Catholic
religious order of men present in over 38 countries
around the globe.  Our founder, Blessed William Joseph
Chaminade, first formed groups of lay people; the
religious orders coming later.  We remain part of this
now worldwide Marianist Family that also includes
sisters, The Daughters of Mary Immaculate
and lay people.

As brothers and priests we live as equals and while
ministering model our lives on Mary, the Mother of Jesus.		      
  We are dedicated to forming people and communities of apostolic faith while advancing justice and reconciliation. We are particularly committed to education and in Ireland we minister closely with and to young people and in solidarity with the poor.          
             
           
             
  Whether you are interested in education, technology, business or any of
the many caring professions, as a Marianist your talents can be put to
good use serving God’s people.   We invite you to browse these pages
and contact us.
