Good Catholic girls who desire to follow Jesus in loving service, after completing at least their schooling can attend this ‘Come and See Programme’ to explore life as a C.J. Sister. The formation process includes a period of 2-3 years of cultural integration, religious and academic study. A three year period of integral spiritual formation called postulancy and novitiate, daily mass and meditation, the making of the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius in a 30 day retreat, and study of the Constitutions and the Scripture are means to deepen one’s relationship with God. Mission is at the heart of our life- the expression of our intimate relationship with God and our sense of call. Each sister brings her own gifts and aptitudes to the congregation, in different stages of formation. The focus of this mission may be prayer and reflection, study or apostolic work, but all of it is aimed towards the building of God’s kingdom and personal growth in faith.
