Like all religious communities, we take the three traditional vows of poverty, chastity and obedience. We also are consecrated under a special, fourth vow to protect and enhance the sacredness of human life.[/background][/size][/font][/color]

[color=#333333][font=arial, sans-serif][size=3][background=rgb(235, 235, 235)]Reverence and gratitude for the unique and unrepeatable gift of each human life made in the image and likeness of God fuels the prayer of each Sister, our first mission in building the Kingdom of God and the "Culture of Life." It also provides the starting point for our interactions with others, especially relationships in community between our 70 Sisters (who come from across the United States, Canada and New Zealand), and in our apostolates.[/background][/size][/font][/color]

[color=#333333][font=arial, sans-serif][size=3][background=rgb(235, 235, 235)]Inspired by the love of Christ our Spouse, the author of Life, we desire to pour out all our gifts of nature and grace in the apostolate, that nothing of the gift of life, and no one to whom it has been given, should be lost.[/background][/size][/font][/color]

[color=#333333][font=arial, sans-serif][size=3][background=rgb(235, 235, 235)]Our missions are carried out with the heart of the Church and with the hope of revealing to those we serve the inherent goodness and beauty of their own lives, so that each person may see and experience the truth that they are an unrepeatable creation of the Master. - [/background][/size][/font][/color][url="http://sistersoflife.org/"]http://sistersoflife.org/[/url]

Sr. Bethany Madonna is a wonderful Sister! I had the lovely opportunity of meeting her this past year. I hope to see her again soon!

Me too!!! Can't wait to see you there!

[OnlySunshine]

I wish I was! I hope all of them are OK after Hurricane Sandy.

[ToJesusMyHeart]

I'll be calling Sr. A tomorrow, so I'll be sure to ask about the hurricane and update you, Mater.

Please do! I was worried sick about them and the CFRs during the hurricane. Could you ask them about the CFRs? Since they are friends, I'm sure they'll know.

[ToJesusMyHeart]

I'll do my best!

[ToJesusMyHeart]

I spoke with Sr. A., and all the Sisters are alright. I forgot to ask about the CFRs, though. Lo siento!


"We are very excited to have you with us for the Come and See! The Sisters who will be picking you up will have your flight number and cell phone numbers so they can check your flight if need be and call you if they have any trouble finding you!

We’ll see you soon! May the holy angels grant you safe travels."

I'm so excited!

Praise God! Don't worry about the CFRs! I found out that they were in a mostly unaffected area so they are fine.
