A person is of more value than a world
We are an International Catholic Congregation of Women Religious.
Many of us spend our lives working in the country of our birth while many others feel called to mission overseas and serve in 68 countries around the world. In each country our ministry and lifestyle reflects the needs and the culture of the country.
Some of us are Apostolic Sisters, that is, we work in a variety of areas of social and community service, others are Contemplative Sisters whose ministry is one of prayer for those on the margins.

"You know that when an archer bends his bow, he aims above the desired mark, otherwise
the arrow will fall short. Do the same, aim higher so that you will reach at least
the minimum required."

CRIMINALIZE THE PURCHASE OF SEX
THE TRAFFICKING OF WOMEN AND GIRLS FOR THE PURPOSES OF SEXUAL EXPLOITATION IS A MODERN, GLOBAL
FORM OF SLAVERY. THE BEST WAY TO COMBAT THIS VIOLENCE AGAINST
PERSONS IS TO TACKLE THE DEMAND
FOR PROSTITUTION BY CRIMINALIZING THE PURCHASE OF SEX.
