We are ordinary Christians living in ordinary homes, working ordinary jobs, and raising families. But, we try to do everything we do in an extraordinary way because of our deep gratitude for all the Lord has done for us.
The brothers and sisters are called to live and work in the midst of the secular world in order to instill and offer religious values to all. In this, the brothers and sisters are called to obey Jesus who says to "live in the world without being of the world." (Domestic Directory, Chapter 1, Paragraph 4)
The domestic home is considered a most important unit of the community, for it is here that the nuclear family dwells as the most primary expression of community within the human society and the church. It is here that the day-in and day-out lifestyle of the domestic expression of the Brothers and Sisters of Charity is lived. Next, come the local cell group, the regional, national and international gatherings, chapters and councils. (Domestic Directory, Chapter 1, Paragraph 3)
Currently, we have about 240 domestic members living primarily in the United States.
