"Constitution" of the Society of the Divine Savior specifies that "Salvatorian life is apostolic and is the expression of the love of Christ urging us to spend ourselves for the salvation of all people... We proclaim Jesus Christ to all people by all ways and means which the love of Christ inspires, especially through the witness of our lives, our kindness, and our apostolic zeal. In fulfilling this ministry we always respect human dignity, and we are ready to serve all people without distinction" (§201-202). Arno Boesing, a Salvatorian, attributes four primary biblical texts (John 17:3, Matthew 28:19–20, Mark 16:15, and Daniel 12:3) as being fundamental for understanding both the society's charism and spiritual vision of Francis Jordan. As of 2019, there are over 3,000 Salvatorians serving in 45 countries on six continents. Their goal is to proclaim salvation to all people by making known the "loving kindness of the Savior". Their work is not limited to one particular activity; members serve as pastors, catechists and teachers, home and foreign missionaries, chaplains, authors, musicians, counselors, spiritual directors, and in many other areas of ministry. They have also created initiatives in health, education, rural development, and pastoral formation, supported by the Salvatorian Office for International Aid. In keeping with the spiritual vision of Francis Jordan, the Salvatorians are prepared to serve in any place, spreading the Gospel "by all ways and means."
