Our Confraternities

At present there are six Archconfraternities of Christian Mothers in the world. They are located in Paris, Rome, Regensburg (Ratisbon), Cracow, Einsiedlen, and Pittsburgh.

The Confraternity of Christian Mothers canonically erected in St. Augustine’s Church (now known as Our Lady of the Angels Parish), 220-37th St., Pittsburgh, PA, was raised to the rank of an Archconfraternity with the right of affiliating other Confraternities wherever the Ordinary approved.

Since then over 3,400 Confraternities have been affiliated with the Pittsburgh Archconfraternity directed by the Capuchin Friars.
