We are a Community of Sisters whose first and main purpose is the promotion of the honor and glory of God and the promotion of Jesus Christ the King of Heaven and Earth. This purpose is achieved through sanctifying ourselves by the observance of the simple vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience; observing the Rule of the Third Order Regular of Saint Francis of Assisi as amended and approved by the Holy Father Pope Pius XI; observing our Constitutions; and by fidelity to the traditional Holy Sacrifice of the Mass and all traditional sacraments, teachings, discipline, and worship passed on to us by Holy Mother Church from the time of the Apostles.
The secondary purpose of the Congregation is helping our neighbor to reach sanctity by the spread of the same Catholic Faith in its traditional practice and discipline, primarily through the apostolate of teaching. Our Community was founded to help the schools of the Society of St. Pius X. We can teach all grades, both boys and girls, all subjects. We can also conduct a small number of First Holy Communion days of recollection and make chapel visits which could include activity days for girls and very young boys.
Our rule is modeled after the life of Jesus Christ. The Gospels were Saint Francis’s inspiration and the life he led was patterned after that of Jesus, his sole guide. We place our way of life under the protection of the most Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary. We wish to fulfill as completely as possible the requests of Our Lady of Fatima. In addition, we place ourselves under the protection of St. Joseph, Patron of the Universal Church, as well as the great Franciscan saints.
We rely on the SSPX bishops and priests for the Holy Mass and sacraments.
