Company of Jesus & Mary

A CALL TO RELIGIOUS LIFE
We are a Catholic religious community dedicated to living the faith as it has always been lived in the Church: faithfully, seriously, and without compromise. Our life is centered on prayer, work, and study, rooted in the traditional Latin Mass and the unchanging teachings of the Catholic Church. We seek to live what many Catholics long for today—a clear, disciplined, and purposeful religious life.

WHAT DRAWS MEN TO THIS LIFE
Many young men today feel called to something more demanding, more meaningful, and more real than what the modern world offers. Our community offers: A clear Catholic identity, a serious life of prayer and sacrifice, fidelity to traditional Catholic worship and morals, a structured daily life with real work and real responsibility, long, solid formation for the priesthood or religious life. Our formation is rooted in the wisdom of the Church, especially the teachings of Saint Thomas Aquinas, and guided by the spiritual discipline of Saint Ignatius of Loyola.

WHY WE EXIST
The Church and the world are in crisis—not because faith demands too much, but because it is often taken too lightly. We exist to live the Catholic faith fully, to preserve what has always formed saints, and to give a clear example of religious life in a time of confusion. We believe men are not made for comfort alone, but for truth, sacrifice, and Heaven. As Our Lord teaches:

“For what doth it profit a man, if he gain the whole world and suffer the loss of his own soul?” (Matthew 16:26)

DISCERNMENT
If you are a man who: loves the Catholic faith, seeks a demanding and disciplined life, desires holiness more than comfort, is open to God’s call to religious life or the priesthood then we invite you to pray, reflect, and inquire. God still calls men today. The question is whether we are willing to listen.
