Who We Are

Given to God
The life of a Daughter of Charity is animated first of all by the LOVE OF CHRIST founded on an interior experience of Him, nourished by personal and communal prayer.

In Community
Living in Community is one of the basic supports of the vocation of the Daughters of Charity. The Sisters live together and collaborate in faith and joy, bear witness to Jesus Christ and continually strengthen one another for the good of the mission.

For the Service of the Poor
We commit ourselves to live intensely the charism of our founders, St. Vincent de Paul and St. Louise de Marillac, by constantly re-evaluating and re-defining our response to the needs of the poor and the sick.

Today, we reach out to victims of hunger, homelessness, substance abuse and broken families; refugees; troubled youth; and persons living with AIDS.

Tomorrow, who knows? Wherever the need arises, Daughters will respond to love and serve.
