We invite you to discover more about our life, work and mission.

WHERE WE ARE
WHAT WE DO
HOW WE SHARE OUR CHARISM WITH THOSE WHOM WE ENCOUNTER
Being faithful to the inspiration of our Foundress Genevieve Dupuis and our Patron St. Paul we are rooted in Christ and live in a spirit of charity, simplicity and joy and strive to “make a difference” by our very presence.
In the sisters’ stories section you will see how God invites us to follow him and each sister's story is different because each one of us is unique in God's eyes.
Please spend a moment reflecting on our ‘Thought for the Day’ and our ‘Sunday Gospel Reflection’ and know that you are united with the Sisters in prayer.
For those who visit our website regularly - we thank you for spending time with us.
For those who are new, a sincere welcome.
May God bless you.

What advice would you give to someone considering Religious Life?
Pray.
Listen to your 'gut' feeling.
Share your thoughts with a person you trust.
The Lord will show you the way and you will have a freedom, a peace and a joy in your heart.
Be courageous. The path may not always be easy.
The Lord is never outdone in generosity. Whatever you give Him – your freedom, your future, your love – He returns a hundredfold.
What gives you joy as a Religious Sister?
At the centre of my joy is a personal relationship with the Lord – a relationship built not just on rituals or obligations, but on genuine love, trust and daily encounter.
Those quiet moments of prayer, the whispers of grace and the assurance that I am known, seen and loved by God. This gives me great joy.
