There are different gifts
but the same Spirit;
there are different ministries
but the same Lord;
there are different works
but the same God
who accomplishes all of them in everyone.

Cor 12:4

The
Holy Spirit has bestowed upon the Church its apostolic
mission since the day of Pentecost, and only through
the Holy Spirit we can preserve continuity with the
Gospel of Christ.
Thus by living the Gospel, we proclaim and reveal Christ's
presence to the world. It is because of this relationship
with the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit that service can
be offered to others.
No one person has the capacity to receive all spiritual
gifts, but the grace of the Holy Spirit is given as
He wills. Only together do we accomplish God's purpose
in human history.
Gathered together in the name of the Lord and consecrated
to him, we are sent forth to announce the Kingdom of
God, and to witness the joy and peace of the new life
we have received.
Every Sister has the privilege of ministering to the
people of God by her prayer, fasting, suffering and
service. Each Sister shares in the mission of the Church
through a variety of ministries. Each ministry carries
with it the mandate of Christ to serve one another in
love. Therefore, we respect the variety of ministries,
each with its own unique contribution of witnessing
to God's presence among us.
Following the example of our holy Father St. Basil,
we join in the struggle to relieve the needy and oppressed,
the broken and unlearned.
The broad scope of the apostolate includes:
1. Education
2.
Health-related services
3. Pastoral ministry
4. Social work
5. All other apostolic work encompassing the spiritual
and corporal works of love.
As religious, we live as a sign of hope in the world.
We are aware that we serve within the wider dimention
of the world with all its problems.
We are ready for change for the sake of the Gospel and
to be open to the signs of the times.
