Welcome
to the website
of the
Sisters
of St. Francis
of the Holy Eucharist |
|
"...
In all
of their
works
the
love of God
and all people
shine forth."
— Rule
of St.
Francis |
| The
Sisters are
dedicated to
adoration of
the Blessed
Sacrament,
prayer for
priests, and
works of mercy.
The Franciscan
characteristics
of contemplation,
littleness,
humility, poverty
and fidelity
to the Magisterium
of the Church
are central
to their way
of life. Prayer
in common,
spiritual exercises,
intellectual
pursuits, manual
labor and recreation
comprise each
day. |

“What
attracted
me to the
Sisters was
the ‘littleness’ of
the community — not
in numbers
but in the ‘littleness’ that
exuded
from their
spirit.
They were
hidden,
amidst
their active
apostolates,
in the
Eucharistic
Heart of
Jesus.
That littleness
brought
forth great
joy.”
