"
The call heard by the first Sisters is ever the same. Throughout the world it continues to raise up and assemble Daughters of Charity, who strive to rediscover at the source the inspiration and intuitions of their Founders, so that they may respond with ever renewed fidelity and availability to the needs of their time."
(Constitutions)


We live our lives not cloistered behind closed walls, but rather among the Poor, immersed in service to them. Whatever the task, at the root of it is our dedication to promote human development and effectively address complex social issues.

Given to God
Our spiritual life is built on a relationship with God that overflows into the service Ministryof those who are in need. In In Community
We support each other by living in community, sharing a common call

For the Service of the Poor
We minister to the poor in many ways and we collaborate with others to provide support and opportunities for society's most vulnerable members.

Are you being called?
The feeling that God is calling you to a life of service and community may surface while praying, reading the Bible, listening to music, surfing the internet or watching a film. You may have felt it for a long time or it could be something that has recently come to you. Ask yourself these questions:

Do I feel a tugging in my heart to live my faith more fully?

Do I feel I want to make  difference with the gifts that I have been given?

Do I love being with my friends and having fun, but feel that there must be more?

If you've answered
YES to one or more of these questions, it could be that God is calling you to a fuller life lived in service to others
