The Dead Theologians Society is a Catholic apostolate for high school age teens and college-age young adults. Through the Saints of yesterday, the Dead Theologians Society inspires the youth of today to become the saints of tomorrow. A special charism of the Dead Theologians Society is to pray for the release of the Souls in Purgatory. Its motto is, “Dead to the World, alive in Christ!” This is inspired by Romans 6:11 where St. Paul tells us to be dead to sin but alive in Christ Jesus.
Society members meet at their parishes to learn the lives of the Saints (who are only dead by the world’s standards and are certainly alive with Jesus in Heaven!), their heroic virtue and listen to their inspirational writings. Using the interesting and engaging DTS format and through the examples of the Saints, young people are catechized and develop positive role models at a time when they are truly needed. In addition, members make use of time-honored Catholic prayers, devotions, and sacramentals such as Eucharistic Adoration, the Rosary, the Brown Scapular of Our Lady of Mount Carmel, and more!
The Annunciation Chapter of the Dead Theologian Society meets weekly, excluding holidays, from 6:00 - 8:00 pm in Langley. The meetings begin with dinner and conclude with communal prayer. As a society, the members consider a different Theologian and/or Saint of the Church, each week. While abiding by the Dead Theologian Society Motto, "Dead to Sin, Alive in Christ," the group seeks to grow and mature in faith, together.
