FAITH FORMATION

APostolate information

We go to the faithful or they come to us! This is how individual relationships with Jesus Christ are forged.

Ministries

Faith Formation has been an important part of our apostolate since 1723. We work in different parishes teaching classes of all ages, engaging in Sacramental preparation, and leading into full communion with the Church through RCIA or whatever is needed.

Following our foundress, Mother Maria Hyacintha Zechner, the foundation of our consecrated lives is to be totally Franciscan. This is our identity. It takes a new “yes” every day to try to live in the spirit of St. Francis as beloved daughters of God and it takes a lifetime.

As consecrated women religious, we have ministered in education and evangelization according to the needs of the times for 300 years. We especially drawn to Theology of the Body and Healing.

In this light, we want to follow Jesus in the spirit of St. Francis and bring His Light to every person we encounter. We want to be the Face of Christ to people all around us. We want to become the Gospel.
