1. Superiors Meet- 4-7 September 2025

Our Congregation

With the words “Today a great work begins,” pronounced by Mosén Antonio Claret, gathered with five young priests in a small room of the Seminary of Vic, on July 16, 1849, the life of the Congregation of the Missionary Sons of the Immaculate Heart of Mary took off.

Claret’s initiative was not improvised. For a long time he had been thinking about the convenience, first of all, of preparing priests for the preaching of the Gospel, and then, of getting together with those who were animated “by his own spirit,” to do with them, what he could not do alone…

Our Delegation

Our history at Kolkata began on June 20, in 1985, when Rev. Fr. S. Anselmus reached Barrackpore with the then students Vincent Anesthasiar and Arokiadoss. He had visited Kolkata a little earlier in an exploration mission to find a suitable place for another theology house of formation for our students because at that time there was only one theology house at Malleshwaram, Bangalore. Other three priests were sent to Delhi, Pune and Poonthamallee respectively

Major Superior

Love is the most necessary of all virtues. Love in the person who preaches the word of God is like fire in a musket. If a person were to throw a bullet with his hands, he would hardly make a dent in anything; but if the person takes the same bullet and ignites some gunpowder behind it, it can kill. It is much the same with the word of God. If it is spoken by someone who is filled with the fire of charity- the fire of love of God and neighbor- it will work wonders.

-Anthony Mary Claret
