The Holy Spirit Missionary Sisters are an international congregation of women ministering in 47 countries. As an international missionary community of about 3,500 women, we are called to share the Good News of Jesus and witness to the presence and power of the Holy Spirit in the world. Called by the Spirit, we are sent to people of diverse cultures, religions, and social/ethic backgrounds. Wherever possible we live in international/intercultural communities. We participate in the mission of Jesus through education on all levels and in different types of schools, through health care, in parish ministry, retreat work and spiritual direction, communication and media, counseling and social services, work with the elderly and especially with women who are pushed to the margins of society.
