Prayer, service, and life in community are the primary principals upon which the sisters carry out their mission which is to reveal the reality and beauty of God’s love to people in need. Cherishing the gifts of creation, we affirm the virtues of humility, simplicity and charity remembering that God is ever present. In the spirit of our scripture call, “The Charity of Christ Urges Us,” the sisters administer and staff educational institutions from preschool through university levels; serve in Christian formation; chaplaincy counseling, pastoral and social services. We are musicians, liturgists, lawyers; advocates for the poor, the immigrant, and underserved, nurses and healthcare ministers. We are represented primarily in the Dioceses of Western Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Arizona, as well as New Jersey, Massachusetts, Illinois, New York, and Florida.
