Semi- Contemplative Sisters

[Domine ut Videam]

The apostolic sisters of the Community of St. John have a very large contemplative focus in addition to an active apostolate.



Here is their website for their United States priory: http://www.communityofstjohn.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=55:orange-sisters&catid=36:orange&Itemid=60

What an absolutely BEAUTIFUL order! Thank you so much for posting, I'm going to read up on them. I love all the photos on their site and their apostolate, just beautiful. This is the first I've heard of the order. I have seen Fr. Antoine on EWTN working with the children.

Thank you again.

"We are not a cloistered community, we are contemplative, but very active. We get between 3-5 hours of prayer each day, but serving Our Lord Jesus Christ in our different apostolates keep us very busy - in the world, but not of the world. "
