LIVING
IN COMMUNITY
The love
of God poured into our hearts by the Holy Spirit finds practical expression
in community life. The Gospel message to live in unity is a challenge
we constantly strive to realize through mutual respect and caring love.
Our relationship with one another, through work, prayer, recreation, etc.,
furthers our growth in self-knowledge and expands our capacity for deeper
spiritual and psychological maturity. Each one's gifts help to enrich
and broaden our life together. We have regular meetings to discuss issues
which are pertinent to our life so that every one's point of view can
be heard and respected. We hold an election for prioress every three years.
Each sister is accountable for the responsibilities she is given in community.
The overflow of our common life is expressed in hospitality to those who
visit, and in a prayerful sharing in the pains and struggles of our contemporary
world.
