Her Charism: Through her mission of prayer and service, this “Migueliana” promotes a profound apostolate dedicated to the formation of spiritual health of the Christian family. She embraces and reveres the messages given the three children by Our Lady of Fatima during her apparitions in 1917. Through her devotion to St. Michael the Archangel and the intercession of the Immaculate Conception, this Sister lives her Faith by feeding on Mass and the Eucharist. She combines the disciplined working life of Martha and the loving, attentive, and reflective life of Mary. Dedicated to mental and liturgical prayer, she has a joyfully diverse apostolate of musical and catechetical ministries, care for the elderly and disabled, and organizing and participating in pilgrimages.
