We, Sisters of St. Francis of the Providence of God, commit
ourselves to the evangelical life of continuous conversion in the tradition of the Third Order Regular of St. Francis.
Called together by a good and provident God, we cultivate an intimacy with God that is nourished by Scripture and Eucharist and a reverence for all creation.
Faithful to our Charism, we go to those whom Providence sends us, and conscious of our mission in the Church, we witness to the Kingdom by our lives of service.
We will be instruments of justice and peace among those in need
of evangelization, healing, and reconciliation, especially the poor and oppressed.
In simplicity and joy we want to be signs of hope, for we believe that Jesus Christ is with us in the power of His Resurrection.
