Charism

The Company of Charity of Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal (CCMM) intends to live the spirituality of St. Vincent de Paul and St. Louise de Marillac.  The CCMM will be involved in the spiritual and corporal works of mercy.

CONF standards mandate Salesian and Teresian spiritualities to be incorporated into the formation program. St. Vincent de Paul and St. Francis de Sales were contemporaries. Our Society of Apostolic Life (nonreligious vows renewed annually) will be distinguished by allowing members to follow the spirituality which takes them to God. This will permit them to found new religious institutes of those spiritual traditions once enough aspirants have been gathered.

Everyone will be staying in their own homes. All will be responsible for their own remunerative work, to include medical, etc., benefits; taxes; etc. We encourage the remunerative work to be with a charitable organization, if possible.

We aim to build up existing charitable agencies through our interaction with them, rather than overextending ourselves with the upkeep of facilities.

CCMM members will be permitted to share living quarters, as long as all pay their fair share of the expenses.

The very future convent will be based on this building.

How does the concept of 'recluse' fit into this congregation?
