— Our missionary choices
We pay particular attention to at least the favored sectors of education, health and social.“By his words and actions, Jesus revealed himself as the one who liberates and saves. Following Him, we play our part with others- children, young people and adults- in creating conditions which enable people to liberate themselves and to live more open and loving relationships”. RL 10-3.In the following of Jesus, in the footsteps of Marie Balavenne and Renée Burel, through our different missionary commitments, we hear the cry of the poor, the sick, the children and make it our own, recognizing in them the person of Jesus Christ. We also witness to “Jesus-Christ, beloved Son of the Father and brother of all, human face of the tender love of God”.
1- In the education sector: we work for the integral formation of the children and young people and for the promotion of the young woman in diocesan schools and in the hostels for young women.
2- In healthcare sector: Jesus healed the sick… In the healthcare centres, together with the medical staff, we try to take care of the sick, to welcome them and to surround them with our love…
3- In pastoral work. We dare to say who God is for us through our life witness, the catechism and the accompaniment of various movements of Catholic action.
4- The liturgical vestment.
