Centennial

Marian statue at our Provincialate in Paterson, NJ

Our Marian spirituality is expressed in dedication to Mary under her title of the Immaculate Conception...like our foundress Mother Immaculata, we endeavor to develop Mary's attentive listening, her unwavering faith, and constant readiness to respond to the will of God, so that we, in our own lives, might reveal God's eternal love and mercy to all.

(Constitutions I, 3)

 Welcome to our website!

Our Passion for Mission
is rooted in Christ,
and like Francis and Clare, we are impelled

by the Holy Spirit to see God in the world

and to make God visible to all.

Gathering on the 70th Anniversary of Mother Immaculata's death, April 2008

(Sisters, Associates and friends in the Paterson, NJ area)

We are an international Franciscan Missionary congregation serving in seven countries.

The image of the Immaculate Conception and the Tau Cross are our congregational signs.

We invite you to explore our site.

Pace e bene!
