MARIANS AROUND THE WORLDAfter the fall of communism, Pope John Paul II urged the Marians to be leaders in rebuilding the Church in Eastern Europe. We quicky took action and helped to foster a "re-evangelization" among many of the ethnic populations there. The fruits of our labor yielded an increase in vocations to the priesthood and religious life. In turn, we are able to minister to those most in need on virtually every continent, serving in many hardship areas around the globe. FROM THE WRITINGS OF FATHER FOUNDER Kazimierz near Cracow, December 11, 1670 "In the name of Our Lord Jesus Christ Crucified. Amen.  
JOHN PAUL II TO THE MARIANS (1981 - 2005)"Faithful, moreover, to the charism that contradistinguishes you, be children devoted to the Immaculate Conception. (...) As is known, your Founder, Blessed Stanislaus of Jesus and Mary Papczyński, knew how to spread and defend with courage the truth of the Immaculate Conception even before it was defined as a dogma of faith. Follow faithfully his example and spread Marian devotion all around you. (...)" more... Copyright © 2003-2008 Marians of the Immaculate Conception. All rights reserved.
