We are a group of Christians who believe that Christ’s love is setting the world alight and that we, as Christians, are called to make Christ’s presence felt, and Christ’s message known, to people of our own generation.
Living together in Christian community, we play together, eat together, play together, share our burdens together. While Christ calls us together to deepen our bonds of love with one another, Christ also calls us outward into the wider world to share the Good News of Christ’s eternal, unlimited, unconditional love together.
We do this through a number of Christ-centred projects, which we facilitate for one another and our Christian peers, who, together, form the Christian Faber Community at large. These projects include Christian retreats, a monthly Mass, a weekly Christian meditative prayer session, and more!
Under the wise guidance of Fr. Myles O’Reilly SJ, who founded the Companions in 2018, our Christian prayer formation is informed by Ignatian spirituality, the model of Christian spirituality developed by St. Ignatius of Loyola, the founder of the Jesuits.
Thus informed, we’re placed together to pass this rich Christian spirituality on to our Christian peers, the aim of which is always to facilitate encounter together with the living, healing, human God, Jesus Christ.
The Faber Community is a Christian community. Newcomers are always welcome!
Quote from Pedro Arrupe SJ
Nothing is more practical than finding God,
That is, than falling in a love in a quite absolute, final way.
What you are in love with, what seizes your imagination, will affect everything.
It will decide what will get you out of bed in the mornings,
What you will do with your evenings,
How you spend your weekends,
What you read,
Who you know,
What breaks your heart,
And what amazes you with joy and gratitude.
Fall in love, stay in love, and it will decide everything.
