The Congregation of the Faithful Companions of Jesus was founded in France in 1820. The bicentenary celebrations will run from the 21st September 2019, birthday of our foundress, Marie Madeleine d’Houët, until the Feast of Christ the King in November 2020.

  • Various internal celebrations in FCJ Schools and Spirituality Centres.
  • Local radio interviews and presentations in different parts of the world.
  • A commemorative painting is in preparation and will be published online.
