MISSION
STATEMENT
The Dehonian Mission Statement
is a short statement of our purpose.
It helps us identify
the scope of our activities and values.
For us it is a kind of excerpt
of the Rule of Life in the language of today.

our MISSION STATEMENT
Our vision: Love with open heart and mind
We are witnesses of God’s transforming love in souls and society. We spread God’s love around the world with open heart and mind.
Our Mission: Adveniat Regnum Tuum – Your kingdom come
We are especially for people who are most in need and for the young. Our Congregation focuses on education, social work, missions, spirituality and media to announce the kingdom of God.
We live in community, are inspired by daily Eucharistic Adoration, and in a fragmented world we believe unity to be possible.

Siamo testimoni dell’amore trasformante di Dio nelle anime e nella società. Diffondiamo nel mondo l’amore di Dio con il cuore e con la mente aperti.

Esistiamo specialmente per le persone più bisognose e per i giovani. La nostra Congregazione si concentra sull’educazione, l’impegno sociale, le missioni, la spiritualità e i media per annunciare il regno di Dio.
Viviamo in comunità, siamo ispirati dall’Adorazione Eucaristica quotidiana, e in un mondo frammentato crediamo che l’unità è possibile.

Istniejemy w sposób szczególny dla ludzi najbardziej potrzebujących i dla młodych. Nasze Zgromadzenie koncentruje się na wychowaniu, pracy społecznej, misyjnej, na duchowości i komunikacji, aby głosić Królestwo Boże.
Żyjemy we wspólnocie inspirowani codzienną Adoracją Eucharystyczną, a żyjąc w podzielonym świecie wierzymy w możliwą jedność.
The last General Chapter told us to invest in communication,
to stay in line with Fr. Dehon.

Personal level
How can you use the Mission Statement in your personal life? Try to do a daily review of the day on the basis on some part of the Mission Statement. A suggestion: prepare or attend a spiritual retreat around this text.
This can be helpful for your personal discernment about what you already do and as you discern decisions for the future!
Group use for a community or in mission
The Mission Statement could be useful for review of a community’s activities as well as annual planning. It can also help to determine priorities and make decisions in a community. Is the new activity that we want to begin truly Dehonian?
The Mission Statement can also help a community evaluate and organize its responsibilities.
Entity/Supraentity level
At the highest level, the Mission Statement can inspire the most significant events in our Congregation, such entity or General Chapters. It can help to set priorities for the entities’ councils in areas such as formation and pastoral activities or simply in daily decisions!
The Reign of the Heart of Jesus
in Souls and Societies.
Fr. Leo John DehonThe Dehonian way starts with an experience of God’s love;
of that we are witnesses.
