"I came that they might have life, and have it to the full."
(John 10:10)
Welcome to the Claretian Missionaries
 

We are a Roman Catholic Religious Order founded by Saint Anthony Claret, a Catalonian priest, in Vic, Spain, on July 16th 1849.

The aim of our Congregation is to seek in all things the glory of God, the sanctification of our members and the salvation of all people throughout the world, in keeping with our charism as missionaries in the Church.

The Spirit of the Lord is upon me...
We always keep this model of a missionary before us:
"Claretians are on fire with love, who spread its flames wherever they go. They desire mightily and strive by all possible means to set everyone on fire with God's love. Nothing daunts them; they delight in privations, welcome work, embrace sacrifices, smile at slander, rejoice in whatever torment they may have to suffer, and glory in the cross of Jesus Christ. Their only concern is how they may follow Jesus Christ and imitate him through prayer, working, suffering and striving constantly and single-mindedly for the greater glory of God and the salvation of all."
