Her Charism:  This Sister is called in community to go in quest of and to contemplate Divine Wisdom present in a world that hungers for meaning, justice, and compassion.  She seeks to bring the message of Jesus, Incarnate Wisdom (Wisdom in the flesh), to people experiencing injustice, poverty, and oppression, especially women and children.  Teaching and nursing have always been important work of this Order but in recent times ministries have been expanded to include many other works of charity in the foreign missions.  Truly devoted to Mary, wherever she serves, she reflects the Face of “Christ Wisdom” and shows immense love to wounded humanity.
