The Oratorians are members of a religious congregation founded by Saint Philip Neri in the 16th century in Rome. Their primary focus is on spiritual growth, education, and community life. Oratorians live in a community but do not take formal vows, allowing them to engage in various ministries, including teaching and pastoral work. The congregation is known for its emphasis on prayer, music, and the arts, reflecting Saint Philip Neri's belief in the importance of joy in faith. Oratorians can be found in many countries, contributing to the Catholic Church through their unique approach to spirituality and community service.
