About Our Life
|
|
We
make a life commitment to God, to the Church and to one another
to be bonded together in the profession of Religious Vows of Chastity,
Poverty and Obedience in community. |
 |
We dedicate ourselves
to serve the needs of the people in centers throughout the world,
providing stable, nourishing centers of life. |
|
We wear a religious
habit and veil as witness to our interior commitment to be a "sign
of contradiction," to be women totally given to the Church's mission
throughout the world.
We wear a simple
cross of nails with a circular band of metal signifying the penetrating
power of the Cross and the integrating power of the Eucharist.
|
 |
 |
We pray daily in community.
Our Eucharistic dedication impels us to a life of prayer and becomes
the way of integration for the activities, creative tensions and
problems presented to us in our various works. |
 |
We expect ongoing
professional excellence of one another, incorporating each Sister's
talents into a network of interrelated
services.
|
 |
 We enter into human
relationships that bring us into psychological and spiritual wholeness.
|
W e are bonded together in trust, sharing all important decisions
in common. |
We believe in a structure
of authority, which, as spiritual touchstone, challenges the community
to more intense levels of faith.
|
| We collaborate
with other Religious Orders of men and women to serve most fruitfully
the mission of the Church. |
