We welcome
young women between the ages of 20 and
40 who desire to share our journey in the
joyful family spirit of our Holy Father
Francis and our Holy Mother Saint Clare.
Good physical health, emotional stability
and a high school education are necessary
requirements.
Most important is a good will and
a spirit of sacrifice together with
the firm determination to give whatever
is necessary to gain this Pearl of
Great Price and to remain faithful
until death. We secure this pearl
by our four vows of poverty, chastity,
obedience and enclosure.
For those who are
seriously interested we offer a live-in
experience of our way of life.
PRAYER
MY JESUS,
Here is my tongue that You may watch
over it; that it may not utter
more than pleases You; and that
my silence may speak to You.
Here are my ears that they may listen
only to the voice of duty; and
to Your Voice, O Jesus! Here
are my eyes that they may not cease
to behold You in every face and in
every work. Here are my hands and
my feet that You may make them agile,
that they may be riveted to Your
service alone, to the execution
of Your desires. Here are my thoughts
that Your Light may possess them.
Here is my heart that Your Love,
O Jesus! may reign and rest in it.
