Her Charism:  This Sister has a deep communion with Jesus Christ, the Author of Life, and serves Him joyfully and in simplicity in the spirit of St. Francis of Assisi.  In our present   “Culture of Death” she is the one who upholds the dignity of all human life from the    moment of conception until natural death and celebrates the miracle and beauty of motherhood because she is “in love with Jesus.”  This Sister has a special place in her heart  for Our Lady of Guadalupe, the Patroness of the Unborn.  Her mission is to offer hope and help to young, pregnant women, needy families, the poor, the elderly, the handicapped and more.  She runs crisis pregnancy and outreach programs, a food and clothes pantry and  offers free medical assistance. as well.  This Sister is a light in the darkness and her humble yet holy habit is the external witness of conversion and Christ’s Presence in their midst.
