Provincial Headquarters
The Congregation of Marians of the Immaculate Conception

The first Marians in the USA settled in Chicago in 1913, and in 1943 established
a house on Eden Hill in Stockbridge, MA, which is now the headquarters
for the St. Stanislaus Kostka Province. The Province currently has houses
or residences located in Massachusetts, Maryland, the District of Columbia,
North Carolina, New Mexico, Michigan and Delaware.
Overseeing the administration of the Province is Provincial Superior
Very Rev. Walter M. Dziordz, MIC and his Council. They comprise
the major decision making body of the Province, and also represent the
Province at the General level. Periodically they hold meetings and and also
visit the various houses and members of the Province to ensure the Marian
charism is lived out and the People of God are being served to the best
of our ability.
