The Religious
of the Sacred Heart are committed to discover, live and announce God’s
love through the service of education for transformation, in diverse
ministries, particularly addressing the needs of children, young
people, women and those in society who are marginalized. (From our mission statement)
Join us in making God’s love visible
in the heart of the world

Rooted
in the vision of Saints Madeleine Sophie Barat and Philippine Duchesne,
the Religious of the Sacred Heart serve as teachers and administrators
in Catholic schools and colleges around the world. We work in inner
cities and rural areas in service to people who are poor, who are
elderly, who are ill, educationally underserved, economically deprived
or developmentally disabled. Out of the best of our Sacred Heart
tradition, we strive to develop leaders and to foster self-respect in
those we serve so they might take charge of their own lives and bring
about good in the world.
Our work flows from prayer and contemplation and from discernment of the ways the gospel challenges us today.
We invite your help in this mission. We deeply appreciate gifts of time or money that help our ministries to flourish and grow.

Nourishing the Spirit
Take time to work, it is the price of success.
Take time to think, it is the source of power.
Take time to play, it is the secret of perpetual youth.
Take time to read, it is the foundation of wisdom...
