Our Mission

contemplative & active

PRAYER Our day is structured around private and communal prayer.

PRAISE Joyful praise is characteristic of our communal prayer and ministry.

EVANGELIZATION Our aim in ministry is to serve the spiritually poor, bringing them to a personal knowledge of the Lord.

“Jesus then said to his disciples: ‘If a man wishes to come after me, he must deny his very self, take up his cross, and begin to follow in my footsteps.” Mt. 16:24

We seek the Lord’s holy and perfect will through our vows of poverty, chastity and obedience.

Called to witness to the Gospel, we seek to draw all people into a personal relationship with Jesus through the transforming power of the Holy Spirit. This flows from a deep life of prayer, praise and on-going conversion in loving commitment to one another.
