The Feast of Saint Marcellin Champagnat
St Marcellin Champagnat’s ministry, and the spirituality that underpins it, is alive and well today all over the world. As well as the Brothers, thousands of lay Marists are living out Marcellin’s vision.
Members of the Marist Association seek to live out their vocation in ways that are inspired by Marist spirituality and values. This means we seek to follow Jesus in the way of Mary.
The Feast Day of St Marcellin Champagnat is also an opportunity for Members of the Association to take part in the Annual Moment of Renewal - to recommit ourselves to following Marcellin as contemporary witnesses of our faith in Christ, and recognise that we become streams of living water, flowing through the personal, communal, and ministry aspects of our lives.
