Marist - Laity Who Share in The Marist Charism

Laity Who Share in The Marist Charism

In many parts of the world groups of lay people who associate themselves with the Marists and the Marist Charism are also called Marist. The names these groups are called vary from place to place but two common terms are Marist Third Order and Marist Laity. Marist Lay people can share in the spirituality of the Marists and/or can share in the work of the Marist Congregations. Many who teach in Marist Schools would also consider themselves part of the Marist Family - a term which embodies all branches of the Marist project including the congregations mentioned above and the lay people who are part of the Marist world.
