Religious Institute of the
ALAGAD NI MARIA
(Disciples of Mary)
Welcome to our F.A.M.I.L.Y.! The name stands for Friends of Alagad ni Maria Involved in Leading the Youth, a group of enthusiastic and dedicated adult lay volunteers from different parishes. Conceived in 2009 in Anaheim, California, our primary goal is to support the mission of the Alagad ni Maria (Disciples of Mary) religious community in "Bringing Christ to the Youth and the Youth to Christ through Mary". Initially, we raised funds through concerts in 2009, 2010, and 2012, benefiting various projects such as youth ministry in Philippine high schools, formation of priests and seminarians, chapel repairs, and chapel construction. Additionally, we support the Young Disciples of Mary in Anaheim and spearhead the vocation assistance program of A.M. in the United States. Throughout the year, our busy schedule includes organizing events and activities, but we prioritize spiritual nourishment through regular retreats and fellowship activities conducted by A.M. priests. If you seek a loving and tight-knit family, consider joining our F.A.M.I.L.Y.!
