Pope Leo XIV in Cameroon

For us, Spiritan missionaries (C.S.Sp), these visits represent a call to rediscover our charism and the way we live out our mission, in the footsteps of Claude Poullart des Places and François Libermann. They invite us to rekindle our missionary zeal in the Holy Spirit, whose seal we bear, and to commit ourselves more deeply to social justice, while being artisans of peace and reconciliation. Finally, they encourage us to form Christians who are strong in faith and fully engaged in the life and transformation of society.

90 years after his death, Daniel Brottier continues to inspire

On this 28th of February 2026, ninety years after his departure, we remember a missionary who was entirely devoted to the poorest of the poor and faithful to the intuition of the founders. His life, marked by unshakeable confidence, constant courage and inventive charity, left a luminous mark that continues to inspire the Spiritan family. Beatified in 1984, Daniel Brottier remains for us a model of openness to the Spirit and absolute trust in God.
