The Christian Life Community is a world association whose executive center is presently in Rome. It is a continuation of the Sodalities of Our Lady, started by Jean Leunis, S.J., and first officially approved by Pope Gregory XIII's bull, Omnipotentis Dei, of December 5, 1584. Prior to these Sodalities of Our Lady we find our origin in those groups of lay people that developed in different parts of the world both before and after 1540 through the initiative of St. Ignatius Loyola and his companions. We live this way of Christian life in joyful communion with all those who have preceded us, grateful for their efforts and apostolic accomplishments. In love and prayer we join those many men and women of our spiritual tradition who have been proposed to us by the Church as friends and valid intercessors who help us to fulfill our mission.
