Vision

Jesus, the Good Shepherd, has called us to live in union with him and continue his redemptive mission in the Church. God has consecrated us for this purpose through the gift of his love poured into our hearts by the Holy Spirit. Our consecration, which is deeply rooted in baptism, turns us totally to the Father in love and gives us totally to Christ’s saving work. We live these inseparable realities of our vocation in community through prayer, sisterly love, the evangelical counsel and the vow of  zeal.

Mission

The Church entrusts to us a share in her mission of reconciliation. The continued experience of mercy in all aspects of our lives, sends us to be a presence of Jesus, the Good Shepherd. We are envoys for him; God is appealing through us and the appeal that we make in his name is: be reconciled to God.
