The Sisters of Life and Cardinal Burke at the Same Conference in July


Seven post day and here is another one. I am plugging the Sisters of Life today. One of the marks of this congregation is that the entire ministry is one of supporting Life, as against abortion and contraception. If a young woman is considering a vocation which is timely and highly needed, here is an order to choose. The link to their beautiful website is here.

The sisters also have a retreat house, which may be seen at this link.

If you can send them a donation, do so. If you are considering a vocation to the religious life, consider them. Pray. We could use them in Europe.

The sisters support Courage, and here is a note on the upcoming special conference at which they shall take part.

We have been endorsed by the Pontifical Council for the Family and our beloved John Paul II said of this ministry, ”COURAGE is doing the work of God!”  We also have an outreach called  EnCourage which ministers to relatives, spouses, and friends of persons with same-sex attraction.”
