Spirituality of the Sisters of Saint Anne

The spirituality of the Sisters of Saint Anne is inspired by Ignatian spirituality, which takes its name from Saint Ignatius of Loyola, the founder of the Jesuits.

It is an invitation to live out the Gospel in a certain way, as a process of integrating Christian faith with the choices to be made in the joys and difficulties of life. It is an invitation to view the world as it is, and find ways to make it more just and more human.

Shaped by this spirituality, a Sister of Saint Anne seeks to be:

• A woman who allows God to show Himself to the world through her …
• A woman who is dedicated to solidarity in order to nurture life in a more just and human world …
• A woman of discernment, who hears the voice of God in moments of prayer and in the people she encounters…
• A woman who lives in the company of Jesus, as did the holy women of the Gospel …
• A woman who is a contemplative in both prayer and action.
