Our Community Work
A Community of Sisters Bonded Through Our Love For Christ
We are a community of Sisters united through our love and devotion to Christ. Work is a blessing and a gift from the Lord. Together, we set out to serve the Lord and support each other through our work.
No matter how simple the work, hands that labor are united with Christ. Our daily work is not just something that earns our living, but is an essential aspect of our spiritual gift of self to the redemption of humanity.
Our working hands are praying hands; our working hearts are hearts that hold you up to a loving God.
"only by the experience of personal love for the lord jesus will we be happy to persevere in a life that is ordinary, obscure and laborious."
Whether we are taking care of the grounds, serving in the kitchen, or cleaning the floors – it is an honor to serve each other and tend to the house of God. As the Scripture says, “Here I am, Lord. I come to do your will.” The simplest task is a participation in the creation and sustaining of the world God so loves.
We love the text from our Order’s Constitutions, reminding us that “only by the experience of personal love of Christ, will we be happy to persevere in a life that is ordinary, obscure and laborious.” The “ordinary and obscure” is a quiet place in which the person can walk out of an endless round of self-promotion to rejoice in the simplicity of being the beloved of God.
Day by day and year by year, we care for the house of God, as we grow together into the mind and heart of Christ.
