Presentation Sisters(South Eastern Province)
A worldwide congregation doing justice in the way of Jesus through public profession of religious vows, life in community and a commitment to education, to addressing values, systems and structures that perpetuate poverty, to forming alliances with others who share a similar passion for justice.
The Presentation way of life began in 1775 in Cork, Ireland when Nano Nagle founded a religious institute to continue and extend her work for the education of the poor, the evangelisation of her people and the relief of those most exploited by the Penal Laws. This institute became the Congregation of the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
Today, over 3,000 sisters work as teachers, counsellors, therapists, nurses, administrators, spiritual guides, chaplains, pastoral agents, and in community and enterprise development.
You will find us in schools, colleges, community centres, health centres, hospitals, and prisons.
Commitment to Christ and his values determines where and how we live:
quietly integrated into cities, towns, villages, rural communities
in the midst of strife-torn communities, e.g. Northern Ireland and Pakistan
alongside people suffering famine and drought in Africa, grinding poverty in Latin America and Asia
Ours is essentially a prayerful, reflective living in today's world, calling for
courage
insight and understanding into what makes society 'tick'
boundless trust in the God of Jesus Christ
