The institute was founded in Como on March 24, 1908 by St. Luigi Guanella, (1842 – 1915). He was sensitive to issues of social outcasts and the handicapped. This gave birth to a religious community to provide the needs of the poor. The motto of the congregation is “In Omnibus Caritas” (In all things Love). The congregation obtained the recognition of ecclesiastical institution of pontifical right with decree of praise, 1912 and was again approved in 1928.
Guanellian mission is desired for most abandoned people in the society. Guanellian vocation is apostolic in nature, which assimilates the mission of the founder as his/ her own, partaking in the life of Christ and in communion with the entire church.
In the words of our founder “a Christian heart, which believes and is sensitive, cannot witness the needs of the poor without relieving them.” Our founder urges us to be disciples who consecrate themselves to god for the poor. The Guanellian families share a common mission and are jointly responsible according to the richness of the gift received from God.
Missionary invitation: “Come and follow me”
Apostolic zeal: I want to be a fiery sword in the holy ministry.
Demands of Guanellian mission: Faith, Charity and Competence
