Is God Calling You to
Make a Difference in the World?
Come join a group of women who strive in their daily lives to be “vibrant and compassionate signs of hope in our broken world.”
St. Marguerite d’Youville left her legacy — a spirituality of compassion and unwavering faith in a Provident God as a way for others to follow and make known in their lives. Her belief in the equality and dignity of all made her a champion of human rights.
As a Congregation today,
we are committed to:
• | Solidarity with the poor |
• | Risk taking for the promotion of justice |
• | Contemplative stance – God is always with us |
• | Openness, mutual support and co-responsibility in the church and the congregation |
