Congregatio Immaculatae Cordis Mariae


 

The Congregatio Immaculatae Cordis Mariae (Latin, Congregation of the Immaculate Heart of Mary; French: La Congregation du Coeur Immacule de Marie; Flemish: Congregatie van het Onbevlekte Hart van Maria) also known as the Scheut fathers or Scheutists was a Belgian Roman Catholic missionary congregation established in 1862 by the priest Teofiel Verbiest. Its origins lay in Scheut, Anderlecht so the C.I.C.M. missionaries were also known as Scheutists or Scheut fathers. The congregation did missionary work in China, Mongolia, the Philippines, and in Congo Free State/Belgian Congo, modern day Democratic Republic of the Congo.
