Our vocation is characterised by the Word of God which is central to our lives. Through his Word God reveals his name and his will for the redemption of the world.

(Constitutions 6)

God sustains us with his presence at every moment of life. The living God who first called the people of Israel and who is faithful, invites us to respond in love
.(Constitutions 52)


********************************************************************

As consecrated women in Sion, we believe that we will be a blessing for the world.... if we make the fire of Sion's charism burn brightly within us, being ever more deeply rooted in God's universal Project of life and peace, revealed in the Bible and seen in the light of the Jewish tradition and the lived experience of the Jewish people today.
(To be a Blessing, General Chapter Document 2004)


********************************************************************

We are sustained by a 'Covenant Keeping' God and nourished by:
- a profound life of prayer which integrates the contemplative and active dimensions of our life.
- a biblical spirituality, strengthened by the study of the word of God according to the Jewish and Christian traditions
("Being a Blessing, Living the Vision", Vision statement of the UK / Ireland Province)
