PRAYER

...through prayer

"Bearing witness to Jesus requires persons of faith who have a living experience of the mystery which God has revealed in his Son. The sisters are invited to draw with joy from the well-springs of the Savior - to draw freely that they may freely share.



"They will have the simplicity and daring to believe that the Lord is calling them to live in close union with him - to make their home in him. In prayer as in all that makes up their life they need above all to be open and attentive to his presence.

"Every day they will take the Sacred Scriptures into their hands and their hearts... As far as possible the sisters will participate daily in the Holy Eucharist...



"In offering Christ to the Father the sisters learn to offer themselves humbly with him for the praise and glory of his name and for the good of all his Church."
