The Lay RC Vocation
JOIN RC
If the RC charism seems to be a vocation that either you and possibly your family might be interested in and you would like to find out more information about discerning a commitment to Regnum Christi, click here for more details.
Regnum Christi lay members are passionate Catholics from all walks of life who impact our world by building Christ’s Kingdom here on earth. Through the witness of their own call to holiness and through their works of evangelization with youth, young adults, and families, they change the world we live in. Members share in the same charism as the Legionaries of Christ, a charism that fosters their Christian life, their participation in the local and universal Church, and their self-giving to others.
The core of the Movement’s charism, or gift of the Holy Spirit, is love. From a deep and life-changing encounter with the person of Jesus Christ springs forth a response of love in the soul and a desire to share this love with others – a collaboration with Christ in building His Kingdom. This Kingdom is Christ himself, when He is known, loved, and imitated by every person.
Rooted in prayer and counting on the grace of the Holy Spirit, members seek to grow in holiness through various means of formation – the weekly Encounter with Christ, monthly retreats, and annual spiritual exercises. A life of deep prayer and union with Christ forms members to be apostles in the world – to set the world ablaze – with the love of Christ.
- Live the charism of Regnum Christi in five dimensions: spiritual life, formation, mission, personal accompaniment, and team life.
- The core of their spiritual lives is knowing Christ’s love and sharing that love with others.
- Their formation gives them a strong Catholic worldview, equipping them to evangelize culture.
- Their mission is living the Gospel in their personal lives, retreats, missions, parish work, youth work, faith-based small groups, and other works of evangelization.
- They accompany people on their journey to Christ, forming them as apostles.
- They gather in teams to pray and to support each other in living their baptismal vocation to evangelize.

RC MISSION
Them in their God-given mission to build the
Kingdom of Christ
Regnum Christi lay members in Atlanta and the Southeast seek to live out their baptismal commitment to holiness and apostolate more intensely. We focus here on various programs with a zeal for service in weekend and monthly retreats, helping engaged
and married couples with programs to prepare them for marriage, forming youth, and sharing Christ’s love with others in local, international, and Holy Week Missions. Members also remain active in their local parishes and to serving the Archdiocese in different activities and events. Under the ‘programs‘ section below, you can find more detailed information about these apostolates and links to their websites and contact information.
