Vision

The Cenacle is and international Congregation whose mission is to assist men and women in the awakening and deepening of faith. The founders responded to the needs of people whose faith had been tested by the French revolution. The Cenacle Sisters continue the work of their founders, responding to the spiritual needs of people in many countries today.

Mission

Jesus Christ continues to all those whom he chooses, inviting them to surrender their life to Him in faith, to be ready to follow Him wherever He leads for the greater glory of the Father. Our aim is to make the Gospel known to the people of our time by the spiritual ministry of retreats, spiritual direction and catechesis, confided to us. The Cenacle Sisters maintain retreat houses and Spiritual Centers throughout the world to provide places of quiet and reflections where discernment and personal faith development can take place. The Cenacle ministry is also extended to parishes and diocese wherever the Sisters are serving.
