Join us to learn more about the Viatorians, our charism, mission, and ministry, and the ways our brothers, priests, associates, and communities are proclaiming Christ and His Gospel and raising communities where faith is lived, deepened, and celebrated.
Special Series
Bolder Dreams is a ministerial development series that responds to Fr. Querbes’ insight that people are bolder when they dream they are doing God’s will. In this series, guests from outside the Viatorian Community share insights on integral Viatorian topics. Our goal is for their fresh perspective to renew and re-embolden our ministries. These episodes appear in the podcast feed.
A Lively and Enlightened Faith: Catholic Social Teaching in the Viatorian Community is a series focused on the themes of CST. It’s housed in its own special webpage, which includes all its resources. The series centers on special episodes of our podcast, which also appear in our podcast feed.

In this final episode, we gather the explicit advice we heard from each guest into a collection of encouragement for us and our ministries. (This episode debuted on October 30, 2023.)
