Members of this association include relatives of people cared for by St Camillus Hospice Care present and past. The main purpose of the association is mutual support for and promotion of hospice care. The beginning of pastoral work by the Salvatorians of the Polish Province in Canada commenced in 1971, but the Community of Salvatorians was formally instituted on 1st January 1994 at the decision of the Council of the Polish Province. At present there are thirteen Salvatorians in Canada. The pastoral work in Canada has a missionary character.
Additional challenges are multi-culturalism and different denominations.
Most of the Salvatorians are working in parishes, besides being involved in pastoral work for Academics, hospitals, prisons, aged homes and Polish communities. Foundation in Hungary One hundred years ago this year Salvatorians went to Timisorara-Mehali, which is now in Romania. Previously it was in the monarchy of Austro-Hungary.
