The Congregation was established on 23rd November 2014.
“And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.” (Matthew
25:40). Following these words of our beloved Master, the Congregation wishes to establish the
desire to serve and to help every neighbour in need as its charism. We wish to walk through life
according to the Merciful Love of Jesus Christ, who has never left anyone without help.
It is our ardent desire that this our congregation, established on the example of the first
congregation of our Holy Father St Benedict, would be guided by the truth of the Holy Gospel and
focused on perceiving Christ and serving him in our neighbours who, by the very fact of being
called to life, became for us brothers and sisters in our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
Brothers of the Merciful Love of God are called and sent particularly to spread the love and mercy
of God in the world. Each of the brothers of the Congregation will care for the sick, the suffering,
the lonely, the rejected, regardless of their gender, psycho-sexual orientation, religion, skin colour or
social status. A brother of the Merciful Love of God is to be a "visible tool" of God's love for
humankind.
