Companions in Mercy are persons committed to a life of service, prayer in the spirit of the Gospel, and the charism of Mercy.

Companions take a single, private vow of Mercy expressing the intentional orientation of their lives toward the mercy of God. Companions acknowledge responsibility to be faithful to the mission of mercy. They attend regular community meetings, gatherings, celebrations and other events as appropriate, receive community mailings and sometimes serve on community committees.
