For more information on the life and work of the Canons Regular of Prémontré in the Canonry of Corpus Christi please visit our web-site or contact the Vocations Director. - The Canons Regular of Prémontré (also known as Premonstratensians, Norbertines and White Canons) were founded by St. Norbert in 1121. The five marks of the Order are; Praise of God in the Divine Office, Zeal for Souls, A Life of Penance and Mortification, Love for Our Immaculate Mother and Devotion to the Blessed Sacrament. The Canons are both active and contemplative and to this end are engaged in a great diversity of apostolates.
The Canons first came to Britain in 1143 and at the time of the Dissolution had already established some 48 houses. In 1872 the Order was re-established in this country and in 2004 Corpus Christi Canonry became an independent canonry of the Order.
