The “Immaculate Conception Marian Congregation” is the distinctive Apostolic Movement of the Sisters of the Company of the Savior. 

For the growth of their spiritual life, Mater Salvatoris School offers its students the opportunity to get involved in different apostolic movements of the The Immaculate Conception Marian Congregation.

The purpose of this apostolic association is to empower young people and families to live a fully Christian life, according to the spirituality of Saint Ignatius of Loyola.

The Marian Congregation motto is “Ad Jesum per Mariam” (“To Jesus through Mary”). Members pay special devotion to the Virgin by seeking to emulate her virtues and spirit of service.

The Immaculate Conception Marian Congregation is organized in sections, according the age of its members: middle and high school students, college and university students, professionals, families, etc. In each section different activities are organized:

• Meetings and formation courses.
• Spiritual Exercises and retreats.
• Gatherings and pilgrimages.
• Participation in World Youth Days and in other events of the Catholic Church..

The apostolic dimension of the Marian Congregation is carried out by students, alumnae and families of the school through the following groups:

• The Immaculate Conception and Saint Francis Xavier Mountaineers Group. This group is a school of life directed to middle school through college students. The purpose of this group is to form young Catholics with a solid and virtuous life of faith in the “school of the mountain”. The mountaineers have the Virgin Mary as their Model and Mother and St. Francis Xavier as their patron. Within the framework of the Marian Congregation, they live the Ignatian spirituality. Their life motto, which inspires all mountaineering activity, is inspired by Ignatian spirituality and is the expression of their patron, St. Francis Xavier: More, more and more. It reflects the continuous spirit of effort and self-improvement that should characterize every mountaineer until they reach their highest peak: holiness. 

• The Immaculate Conception Missionaries is another group in which High School and College students share their time and joy with the most needy. They have different activities like visiting nursing homes, orphanages, and hospitals. They also take part in rural missions in which they help the Pastor of the Parish visit the elderly, play and teach Catechism to the children, and give testimony of the joy of faith.

• Heart Speaks to Heart: is an apostolate of the Marian Congregation aimed at building friendships between mothers and refreshing the foundations of our Catholic faith through monthly wine/cheese evenings or coffee/bagel mornings followed by a brief discussion of each month’s topic. All mothers of the school are invited and encouraged to join.
