As members of an apostolic Congregation we are called to participate in the mission of Jesus to extend the reign of God. Trusting in Providence, and in a spirit of service, we strive to incarnate God's compassionate love as we minister to one another and to our sisters and brothers.

Our apostolate is supported by prayer and community life...

In keeping with the spirit of our Founders, who laboured for the poor, we exercise our apostolate by promoting human dignity and justice for all.

Mindful of our mission to serve with compassion, trusting in Providence, we exercise our apostolate in the traditional and evolving areas of education, care of the sick and aged, social work, and pastoral ministry.
