On February 2, 1945, in Brest, France, Father de la Chevasnerie, S.J., founded the Congregation.

In 1958, the first American house was opened in Owensboro, Kentucky.

On July 4, 1967, the Congregation was approved by Rome as a diocesan religious congregation.

March 11, 1968: death of the founder.

1969 saw the beginning of a mission in Cameroon, Africa.

Keeping with our founder's wish to "Go out to all the world and spread the news" of the Gospel, of the spirit of the Lamb of God, meek and humble of heart, we began a mission in Jaurez, Mexico in 1998.


Spirituality

Father de la Chevasnerie gradually discovered in the Paschal Mystery the center on a very strong spirituality. He used the symbol of the Lamb of God to make this spirituality more real for him.

Through Baptism and through religious consecration, we are members of the body of Christ, who continues to live His mystery of death and resurrection in us.
