Each sister can make monthly calls to family, write regularly and visit her family for two weeks each year. In addition to this, a sister’s family may visit her at our Motherhouse two weekends each year. A sister can also write periodically to friends and receive letters from them.
Our community embraces the family members and loved ones of our sisters to whom we owe a significant debt of gratitude. We are very conscious of the fact that the greater physical separation from a daughter or sister who enters religious life is felt as a very real sacrifice. We are grateful for the example, love, support and prayers of our families, especially our parents, and we intercede frequently for the needs of our family members, as well as for the needs of all of those that are entrusted to us.
Our "For the Families" page is specifically dedicated to family members of women who are discerning or have entered religious life.
If family members have particular questions about our way of life that are not answered in the pages of our website, we welcome hearing from you! Please contact the Vocations Coordinator by calling the main motherhouse number or send an email through the "Contact Us" page.
