We are an International Congregation known as the ‘Salesian Missionaries of Mary Immaculate’ (SMMI), a Religious Missionary branch of the Society of the Daughters of Saint Francis de Sales. Our Generalate is based in Paris, France and the Congregation is spread over 22 countries comprising 8 Provinces and 5 Regions. We live in multi-cultural communities in harmony and solidarity witnessing to the vitality and diversity of the Church. We follow the spirituality of St. Francis de Sales (SFS) and embrace the duties of our state of life in response to the universal call to Holiness. The virtues of humility, gentleness, simplicity, patience, optimism, interiority and respect are the Salesian way of living the Gospel with great liberty of spirit and deep joy. By following the Salesian Spirituality, we live in the context of the words of our Patron Saint St. Francis de Sales “Let us be who we are, and be that well, so as to honor the Master Worker, whose handiwork we are.”
