Religious Sisters

Our Foundress:

Mary Aikenhead was born in Cork in 1787. She had a God-inspired dream to respond to the needs of the people of her time, especially the poorest. She worked for it to become a reality and founded the Religious Sisters of Charity. We are all part of that dream and of its fulfilment in today?s world.

What's next?

The daily witness of our personal respect for the dignity of others proclaims the kingdom present now. To love is not to give of your riches but to reveal to others their riches, their gifts, their value and to trust them and their capacity to grow. Jean Vanier :
