About Society of Mary (Marianists)
The Society of Mary (Latin: Societas Mariae), abbreviated S.M., is a Catholic clerical religious congregation of pontifical right for men, whose members are commonly known as the Marianists. Its members include both brothers and priests, who append the post-nominal letters "S.M." to their names. The society was founded in Bordeaux, France, on 2 October 1817 by Blessed William Joseph Chaminade, a priest who sought to rebuild Catholic life in the aftermath of the French Revolution. The Society of Mary is one of the four branches of the Marianist Family, together with the Daughters of Mary Immaculate, Alliance Mariale, and Marianist Lay Communities. The Marianists are especially associated with education, youth ministry, retreat work, parish ministry, and social outreach.
