Who We Are

“When Christ died on the Cross for us, he set my heart on fire and I want to take that message to others.  That is why I belong to a religious community of brothers and priests called the Passionists.” (Fr. Chris Gibson CP)

 

  • Who are the Passionists?
  • Charism
  • Ministries
    • A group of men consecrated to God
    • Founded in Italy by St. Paul of the Cross in 1740
    • Who share life in community
    • Who are centered in the mystery of the Passion of Christ,
    • expressed in their prayer life
    • Who reach out compassionately to others, especially those who are suffering
    • In whom Passionists see the Passion of Christ lived out today

  • “The Passionist charism calls us to stand at the foot of the Cross with Mary and experience the transformative love of the Crucified Jesus. Our Passionist vocation is a commitment to keep alive this redemptive, loving memory of  Christ’s Passion by reaching out with compassion to those who suffer either through illness, injustice, spiritual need, poverty or neglect.”

    “Centered on the love of Christ Crucified, the Passionist Vocation calls us to commit ourselves to serve Him in all those who are suffering.”

    • Preaching parish missions and retreats aimed specially at re-evangelization
    • Other ministries which include teaching, parish staffing,
    • chaplaincies in hospitals and prisons,
    • other outreach to those in need,
    • and foreign missions
