The Sodalitium Christianae Vitae is a Society of Apostolic Life made up of laymen and priests who live in community as brothers, and have fully given their lives to God, proclaiming the Gospel in the diverse circumstances of human life.
It is a community within the Church that was born in the wake of the Second Vatican Council, embracing the guidelines presented in the major Church documents of the time. The Sodalitium Christiane Vitae was Pontifically approved by St. John Paul II in 1997.
