At the Fathers of Mercy, we believe in developing the whole man, body and soul, to make him the Soldier of Christ he’s called to be. Our Congregation strives to foster a strong fraternal community life which integrates in the individual man a well-founded balance of prayer, work and recreation. We believe in giving our men a solid formation rooted in sound human, spiritual, intellectual and pastoral principles. We are a Congregation of Pontifical Right, a religious community recognized for its loyalty to the Magisterium of Holy Mother Church. In ten years, we’ve preached over 1,100 parish missions and retreats throughout the United States and in Canada, Australia and India. We’re looking for good, holy men to spread the Mercy of God to all as we continue to carry on a 200-year-old apostolate of leading back home the prodigal children of our times. Founded in 1808 following the French Revolution, our holy founder, Fr. Jean Baptiste Rauzan brought together a band of missionary preachers to bring fallen away Catholics back to the Faith and to ignite further the Faith of those who never lost it. After 200 years, both the tradition and charism continues. The Fathers of Mercy preach parish missions, retreats and devotions and assist bishops with the staffing of rural parishes. So, if you’re a man between the ages of 18 and 40 and believe that God may be calling you to pursue a religious vocation, then contact us.
