Papal Audience with Capitulants of the Marist Chapter

Marists

The General Chapter of the Society of Mary takes place from 16th September to 6th October in Nemi, Italy. Capitulants of our General Chapter 2025 were received by Pope Leo XIV in the Clementine Hall, in Vatican City on 18th September. He addressed the present religious with the following words:

"I am very pleased to meet you on the occasion of your Chapters and Assemblies. I greet the Superiors General present, and all of you who are engaged in efforts of listening and discernment in these days. Some of your Congregations are carrying out elections, and this too is a great gift for the Church and a great responsibility, which we entrust to the Lord together. Your Institutes are a “splendid and varied testimony, reflecting the multiplicity of gifts bestowed by God on founders and foundresses who, in openness to the working of the Holy Spirit, successfully interpreted the signs of the times and responded wisely to new needs”
