Doing the Work of Mary

Marists are men and women who strive to live the Gospel the way Mary lived it. We are scattered to the four corners of the world but united in one heart and one mind under the patronage of Mary, the mother of Jesus. We gather into religious congregations and lay movements: The Missionary Sisters of the Society of Mary, the Marist Sisters, the Marist Brothers, the Priests and Brothers of the Society of Mary, and many lay groups of Marist inspiration.

Today, we continue in the venture to renew the spirit and mission of the Church as a place of collaboration and true spiritual enrichment.

We invite you to discover that true strength is found in gentleness. Marist spirituality invites us to embrace this liberating truth, which comes to us from the heart of God, by following Mary, the Mother of Jesus. Like Mary, we too can hear the gentle rhythms of the grace of God in our lives by making our own her manner of thinking, judging, feeling, and acting.

Mary's way is a direct path to the divine heart of mercy.

On Pilgrimage: A Marist and Parishioners at World Youth Day 2011 By Jim McGoldrick , S.M.

Youths and adults from three West Virginia parishes put a contemporary spin on the medieval practice of pilgrimage when they visited ancient shrines in France and Spain en route to World Youth Day 2011 in Madrid.

Marist Father James McGoldrick led parishioners from St. Vincent de Paul in Wheeling, and other parishes in Charleston and Wheeling, on a spirit-filled adventure that began in Paris, France. At the Cathedral of Notre Dame, the group celebrated the Eucharist for the intentions of their West Virginia benefactors.
