We are an international Congregation, founded at Villefranche-de-Rouergue by a french woman, now St. Emilie de Rodat.
Our aim is to imitate Jesus of Nazareth in today’s world, revealing God’s tenderness and love.
Personal and community prayer nourishes our hope and helps us to be contemplative’s in action.
Community life is very important. From it we derive joy and strength for our apostolic activities.
Our forms of presence and service are varied:
Our range of activities worldwide are:
- Teaching
- Nursing
- Parish ministry
- Counselling
- Guided prayer
- Spiritual direction
- Social work
- Ecumenism
- Chaplaincy work in schools, hospitals, prisons, nursing homes
- Pastoral work with the elderly, the homeless, the gypsies, and prostitutes
- Promotion of women’s welfare
In Ireland we have a small community in Tullamore. Our main ministry is prayer.
The House of Formation for Ireland and England is in London.
‘Make the best of Masters known and loved.’
