The New Millennium


The Society of Saint Edmund remains committed to its legacy of taking on exceptionally challenging work. With fewer priests and brothers, our four core ministries, Social Justice, Education, Spiritual Renewal and Pastoral Ministry, continue to flourish thanks to dedicated and committed lay partners who share our vision and mission.

Though our numbers are smaller, we remain what we have always been: a missionary band with a tremendous zeal to help those most in need. Today, you will find Edmundites directing a thriving campus ministry at Saint Michael’s College, feeding the hungry and homeless in Alabama, counseling recovering alcoholics in 12-step programs and making a home for people in the Catholic Church. Our ministries may be diverse, but it is always with the intention of making God known and loved, in deep and meaningful ways.


Who We Are

“The Edmundites are quite different today from what we were in 1843 or 1924, but we have always been on the move. We’ve always been responsive to what is being asked of us, either by the Church or when we interact with people and that’s going to carry on. We’re very hopeful, but ultimately, people have to be open to what God is asking of them.”
