Our Mission Statement
We are Pallottine Missionary Sisters, women called by God and consecrated to Him through lives of:
 |
| |
We are witnesses in the Church |
| |
with Christ, Apostle of the Eternal Father as our model, |
| |
Mary, Queen of Apostles, as our Patroness, |
| |
and the Gospel as our Fundamental Rule. |
|
Impelled by the love of Christ, we engage in the Universal Apostolate,
seeking to awaken all Christians to their apostolic call and joining with them in using
all means available to proclaim and revive faith
and to deepen the love of God among all people throughout
the world with the vision and zeal inspired by our Founder, St. Vincent Pallotti.

| A Bit of History |
 |
In 1835, St. Vincent Pallotti started the Union of the Catholic Apostolate, bringing together priests, men
and women, religious and lay people; united as a faith community for the common purpose of living and
spreading the Good News. In 1838, the Sisters of the Catholic Apostolate (Pallottine Sisters) were
founded as part of the Union. The missionary branch, the Pallottine Missionary Sisters, began in
Germany as a response to the missionary needs in the Cameroons which were being administrated by
the Pallottine Fathers.
Inspired by Pallotti’s motto, “The Love of Christ Impels Us,” the Pallottine Missionary Sisters came to
America in 1912.

Ministries
Currently we have several primary apostolates in the fields of education and health care but our
individual ministries differ from Sister to Sister. |
