We are an apostolic and missionary congregation, called to be the real and tangible presence of Jesus in the world today. The Sisters respond to the call of the Spirit and consecrate themselves to God, dedicating their lives to the following of Christ through the public vows  of consecrated celibacy, evangelical poverty, and religious obedience.

We share a life of prayer, mission and commitment to service with each other. With acceptance and awareness, we strive to live in unity while honoring each member of the community as unique.

How does one become a Sister?

Begin talking with a spiritual guide. When you do, you move into discerning God's call and your own deepest desires. With the help of your spiritual guide, you will look for signs of a call to religious life. You will ponder the challenges of religious life and talk about what it calls you to: "a total, exclusive, and lifelong self gift to Christ" (Sandra Schneiders, Selling All). You will reflect on the joy and pain of living in community, of giving yourself to the mission of Jesus, of committing yourself to making a difference.

It is difficult to put a timeline on discerning God's call. In general, however, a woman spends time getting to know the Congregation before making a formal application to the community. She lives for a period of time as a pre-novice in a local community, after which she spends another two years as a novice in the Congregation. Her novitiate ends with her first profession of vows. She pronounces her final vows a minimum of three years after her first profession.

We invite you … to share our life and our mission! Will you join us? Will you respond to God's call, to give yourself completely to God and God's people
