Today, we offer our gratitude to Friedrich A. and Eva Gertrude (Kern) Dietz. Their enduring family legacy includes two generations of Maryknollers with three vocations; Father, Brother, and Sister.

Congratulations to Fr. James Najmowski, MM on becoming the Society’s new Procurator General in Rome! What better way to celebrate Fr. Jim than through our mutual appreciation of Maryknoll’s history?

Today, we celebrate the life of Bro. Gonzaga Chilutti. His expertise as a mechanic kept Maryknoll’s Pando Vicariate mission running in the depths of Bolivia’s jungles.

Observed annually on August 9th, this international day of observance is intended to raise awareness of the unique problems faced by Indigenous communities and gather support for Indigenous peoples living throughout the world.

How did Julia Ward, one of Maryknoll’s original benefactors, become associated with Maryknoll?
