As a group of vowed women who have freely chosen to live within community, our life together is bounded by our commitment to prayer, work and the development of healthy and creative lifestyles. Interdependence - rather than independence or co-dependence - means that each values and respects the gifts, talents and person of the other.
Choosing to live simply and with an open hearted attitude towards all, our homes are places of hospitality for others, and following the teachings of our founder, we seek to apply the principles of community laid down for us. As a community, we
- Share common prayer each day, though the liturgy of the hours and Eucharist.
- Make time and space for regular community development
- Looks for creative ways to integrate more fully the spiritual dimension of our lives and work.
- Practice accountability to all the members of the community
- Come together to celebrate life and significant community memories
- Undertake ongoing study and development of the spiritual life , and promotes this for our associate members .
- Discern and review the manner in which we live our vowed life together, that it may remain a vital force for each member and the community at large.
In all that we do and are, our lives reflect the spirit of our founding. We seek to live the vows we proclaim, simply and truthfully, and have the responsibility of calling each other to ever greater fidelity to our life and mission.
