We welcome the Apostles of the Interior Life who will be leading the mission:

“We are consecrated women who dedicate our lives through the profession of the evangelical counsels of chastity, poverty, and obedience. We live in community and have prayer at the center of our day. Our apostolate ranges from evangelization to spiritual formation, including spiritual direction. A Biblical inspiration for our charism is the Woman at the Well (John 4).

“Whoever drinks the water I shall give will never thirst.”
