The Christian Life Community is an international association of lay Christians which is present in almost sixty countries.

The CLC bases the model for its view of spirituality upon the teachings of Ignatius of Loyola, and receives pastoral guidance from the Jesuits. The Spiritual Exercises of St Ignatius a characteristic instrument of CLC spirituality. The CLC encourages members to adhere to a lifestyle which is gospel based and simple, to serve the poor and to integrate contemplation and action. The CLC has its origins in the World Federation of Marian Congregations which was founded in 1953, and adopted its current name in 1967.

The CLC’s General Principles were approved in 1971 and revised in 1990.

The World Christian Life Community is governed by the General Assembly, which determines norms and policies, and by the Executive Council which is responsible for their ordinary implementation.
