Commitment and Signature

The Marist Association is a family of faith-filled people across Australia committed to living the Gospel, with Mary as their inspiration, in the style of St Marcellin Champagnat. The core mission of the Marist Association is to make Jesus Christ known and loved, with an emphasis on working to bring hope to young people and those on the margins. It is responsible for ensuring the vitality and sustainability of all Marist Ministries.
I feel called to follow Jesus, with Gospel values at my core. I wish to nurture my spiritual life. I believe I am called to do this in the way of Mary – whose response was always a resounding ‘Yes”.
As a member of the Marist Association, inspired by Saint Marcellin Champagnat, I commit to living out this call, and:
• living out our mission as Marists within the context of my life and work
• nurturing my personal prayer life and faith journey
• fostering community and Marial spirit where I live or work
• engaging whenever possible in the dialogue and discernment that shapes and envisions our mission and life
• becoming informed about the various ministries which are part of the life of the Association
• sharing my gifts to the extent that I can to help lead and animate the life of the Association
• encouraging others to consider joining the Association
• participating in the election of the leadership council for the Association.

With humility, simplicity and modesty, and a sense of daring and hope, I ask to be received as a Member of the Marist Association of St Marcellin Champagnat.
