Education
For over a century, the educational ministry in Mexico has promoted the mission of the 
Congregation. Bringing the Gospel to a world characterized by globalization involves a paradigmatic change in the process of education, requiring a comprehensive articulation of the desired principles, values, and goals in order to maintain continuity and faithfulness to our Charism.
Education is a privileged work of Evangelization. The Congregation of the Sisters of Charity of the Incarnate Word of the Province of Mexico have expressed their desire to make tangible the merciful love of God in the world today through a committed education for the future, which is rooted in the Spirituality of the Incarnation. In light of the challenges of the world today, and in faithfulness to the Charism of the Congregation of the Sisters of Charity of the Incarnate Word and desiring to live the Mission in an education environment, the Sisters have created an EDUCATION MODEL that reflects this vision of Catholic Education. www.colegiosccvi.org/ciu.edu.mx
The Congregation’s education ministry in Mexico is comprised of the following:
