Prayer for Vocations
1st September 2011
Gospel radicalism finds expression in the mission God has chosen to entrust to us: from the contemplative life, which welcomes into its cloisters the word of God in eloquent silence and adores his beauty in the solitude which he alone fills, to the different paths of the apostolic life, in whose furrows the seed of the Gospel bears fruit in the education of children and young people, the care of the sick and elderly, the pastoral care of families, commitment to respect for life, witness to the truth and the proclamation of peace and charity, mission work and the new evangelization, and so many other sectors of the Church’s apostolate.
(From the address given by Pope Benedict to the young Religious Sisters at World Youth Day, August 2011)
The Sisters of Our Lady of Sion have been entrusted with a unique Charism in the Church. We are called to witness to God's faithful love for the Jewish People.
