“Never Forsake Charity”

TESTAMENT OF OUR FOUNDRESS MARIA BENEDICTA

1. That the Congregation does not rust, but ever be present to the needs and urgent requirements of the church, wherever they do show up.
2. That each Sister strives to be, inwardly a monk, exteriorly an apostle.
3. That each sister looks forward to cultivate to herself in the spiritual as in the professional way to be able to match all tasks and circumstances.
4. That each sister requires with great conscientiousness the content of the Holy Rule, that all consider cultivating the life of the community.
5. Never shall have an aspiration to become a huge Congregation, branches have to be found like Priories with a certain number of sisters not exceeding, who shall have their centre in the Mother house.
