Welcome to the site of the TransCanada Province of the Spiritans. We are a Roman Catholic Religious Congregation of over three thousand members, founded in 1703. Our missions are spread worldwide. While we may be found involved in many diverse ministries, we have dedicated ourselves to working with the poor and in those situations where the Church has difficulty in finding ministers. We hope you enjoy your visit to our site and that while browsing you will keep us in your prayers. May God bless you.

Are you interested in:

  • a life of service to others especially those on the margins of society.

  • sharing the Good News of Christ with those who have never (or scarcely) heard it.

  • a spirituality always searching for the promptings of the Spirit.

  • membership in a friendly, supportive community.

 

Lay Spiritans -

 
men and women, single or married, who belong to the the Spiritan community and are committed to its mission, while continuing their regular lives.

 

Prayer for Vocations

Jesus, sent by the Father and consecrated by the Holy Spirit, you came to save all people and you continue your mission in the world of today through your disciples. May your Holy Spirit inspire men and women to participate in this ongoing ministry to peoples, groups and individuals who have not heard the Good News, or scarcely so: to those whose needs are greatest: to the oppressed, and to those for whom the Church has difficulty finding labourers.

 

Mary, mother of Jesus and our blessed mother, you watched over and guided the formation of your Son in Nazareth. Foster and strengthen among your Son's disciples the call to serve as priests, religious and lay ministers in the ever challenging world of evangelisation.

Amen
