. . . the silent slumber of the Infant
within the Virgin Mother's womb
. . . the silent Heartbeat
within every Consecrated Host
. . . the mystery of the Treasure
revealed in Time . . .
yet Hidden until
the End Times
. . .
. . . the Magnificent cry of the Church:
"Come Lord Jesus!"
to be fulfilled and completed
in
His Second Coming
Advent is . . .
His Infant slumber in Her womb . . .
His Eucharistic Heartbeat . . .
The Mystery and Magnificence
of: Emmanuel . . . God with us!
We are a cloistered contemplative community of nuns with the charism to keep alive the memory of Christ's Passion. Our Founder, St. Paul of the Cross, said that "the Passion of Jesus Christ is the greatest and most overwhelming work of God's love." As contemplatives, we witness to the primacy and reality of God. As Passionists, our lives are signs that point to Jesus Crucified. "See, how much He loves you?"
