Mission Statement

The Congregation of the Resurrection announces and gives witness to the Paschal Mystery.

Convinced of God's unconditional love for us, we herald the liberation and salvation of each person and society as a passage from death to life, in which every situation of evil and injustice will be overcome.

We call others, especially youth and families, to communities of the Risen Christ in which faith, hope and love radiate as a sign of our union with Christ and his mother, Mary, in the Church. We are convinced that to do this, our Congregation must be a model of Christian community in which people are one in heart and mind.

We reach out to all people through our pastoral-educational ministry but, especially join in solidarity with people diminished by unjust structures.
We assist the laity in their own efforts to become prophets to the world and to transform it by providing them with a deeper experience of the Paschal dynamic in their lives.

As an international community, we assist each other in various parts of the world by sharing our ministries, experiences and resources.

We share Christ's own desire to enkindle the fire of divine love in the heart of every person on this earth.
