Living in community is a core pillar of our vocation. This communal aspect provides crucial support for our lifestyle and is the foremost place of our belonging.

the power of community

For Daughters of Charity, life in community is integral to our vocation. It is an essential support for our way of life and is our primary place of belonging.


We live together in community, the better to fulfil our mission of service. Community life is built each day by our gift of self and commitment. It is the setting in which joy and affection nurture our human and spiritual growth, as well as our apostolic creativity.


United by the same call, we accept one another with respect and trust. This faith vision creates bonds of friendship in which differences become mutually enriching.

THE THREE STRANDS OF OUR LIFE

The life of the Daughters of Charity is deeply intertwined with three fundamental strands: 'Given to God' through prayer and contemplation, 'In Community' for mutual support, and 'In Service of the Poor,' mission embodying the essence of charity as exemplified by Jesus Christ. Our commitment to these pillars shapes a life of deep faith, communal support, and tireless service. Discover more about each aspect of our life:
