Education
Providing quality education is the longstanding hallmark
of BVMs. Today’s educational ministries are diverse
and encompassing. We are teachers and administrators
in pre-schools, elementary and high schools, literacy
centers, colleges and universities. A growing number
of our Sisters are educating new immigrants. |

are pastoral associates and administrators, directors
of religious education and adult faith formation. Our
Sisters also provide leadership in retreat and renewal
centers, and serve as companions on the spiritual journey.

Healing
and Reconciliation
BVMs extend God’s healing love in hospital settings,
counseling the grief-stricken, married couples and young
persons in pain. They work at building conflict-resolution
and mediation skills, serve as chaplains at correctional
institutions, and journey with the aging. |

Works of
Justice
Our Sisters are committed to work against oppression
brought about by unjust political and social structures
– locally, nationally and internationally. Action
on behalf of peace and justice is woven into BVM spirituality
and all ministries as a key part of Gospel living. |
