  • About Us


    Passionist Family Groups began in New Zealand in June 1988. Effective leaders across each diocese work with the Coordinating Director, Fr Brian Traynor CP. Together they provide formation and resources to develop healthy leadership models within the movement. Family Groups support and encourage building community, giving people a sense of acceptance and belonging. Can anyone join? The answer is ‘Yes’ - Our motto is ‘A family for all’.
