Thank you Sr Mary Fyfe

We are, each of us, called to live the charism handed on to us by Fr Jules Chevalier. Spread throughout twenty-seven countries of the world, it is together that we make up the "everywhere" of our motto: May the Sacred Heart of Jesus be Everywhere Loved!

We need the prayers, encouragement and mutual support of each other to help us persevere with love, with zeal and generosity in carrying out our mission. Our spirituality of the heart is one that that the world is so much in need of today.

We live it in practical ways through our everyday lives ...through compassion for others, forgiveness and mercy towards them, through kindness which has no limits, through acceptance of differences, and in care for each other's needs.

We must carry forward the flame of our spirituality into our communities, to the places where we work, and into our prayer life, so that our lives and those of the people around us continue to be transformed by the conviction that God loves them and us with a human heart - through the Heart of Jesus His Son.

It is the knowledge and conviction of this love which will give to people's lives and to our own, the meaning and happiness for which everyone so much longs.

- Sr Mary Fyfe
