Forming Disciples of Christ
The Province of Meribah welcomes you to our website as we share our faith and our vocation as Marianists. We are members of an international Catholic religious congregation of Brothers and Priests, the Society of Mary (Marianists), founded in 1817 by Fr. William Joseph Chaminade. We form communities dedicated to bringing others to Christ, as Mary, our Blessed Mother, did. We seek to grow in holiness as Sons of Mary. Christ is the center of our life as we strive to become more like Him.
We specialize in the education of young people of Long Island, New York, helping them to grow as persons; developing their talents and their faith. We invite you to explore our life and works as you navigate these pages. As you do, you may also contemplate your own faith and perhaps, God may be calling you too!

Are you tending to take out your frustrations on those closest to you – your parents and your siblings? Have you become more critical of little things that bother you? Do you grow impatient very quickly? Do you find fewer moments of joy in your life?
