Caritas Christi Secular Institute
Laywomen Consecrated to God in the world through the Church. We renounce everything to live for Him alone in the world.

Do you suffer from seeing Jesus so little loved, so little known? Do you believe that the world will only be saved by Charity?
TASTE and SEE the goodness of God through Caritas Christi. Its members are continually striving for holiness in conforming their lives to the Gospel by embracing the Evangelical Counsels. As members of a secular institute for single laywomen, they consecrate their lives wholly to God while remaining in their home, profession, and parish.
Is God calling you to this vocation?
It was not you who chose me, but I who chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit that will remain, so that whatever you ask the Father in my name he may give you. This I command you: love one another."
Jn. 15:16
Secular Institutes through their own specific blending of presence in the world and consecration, they seek to make present in society the newness and power of Christ's Kingdom, striving to transfigure the world from within by the power of the Beatitudes. In this way, while they belong completely to God and are thus fully consecrated to his service, their activity in the ordinary life of the world contributes, by the power of the Spirit, to shedding the light of the Gospel on temporal realities.
