Since our basic mission in the Church is to give glory to the Father
through total dedication to and union with the Incarnate Word, we lovingly
labor to become more like Jesus Christ, the Way, the Truth, and the Life.
In accordance with the charism of Jeanne Chezard de Matel, our Foundress,
we also endeavor to draw others to share in the graces of the Incarnate Word.
Jesus Christ radically touched the lives of His contemporaries through His
oneness with the Father. As we whole-heartedly respond to the Father's call, we
become co-laborers with Jesus in bringing God's kingdom to be, touching the lives
of our contemporaries with His Love. Flowing from our oneness with the Incarnate
Word, our apostolate in the Church precisely involves:
- special adoration and imitation of the Incarnate Word;
- special adoration of the Blessed Sacrament;
- special reverence for Mary, the Mother of the Incarnate Word;
- an apostolate of Christian education and care of the sick determined
by the current needs of the Church.
Impelled by love to share the Incarnate Word's mission of bringing God's
kingdom to be, we joyfully seek to serve those in need, with whom Jesus closely
identified Himself. Likewise, attempting to fill up what is wanting in the Body
of Christ, we offer ourselves in prayer and denial of self-will for the conversion
of sinners.
Called in the Church to witness to the Incarnate Word's presence in the world,
we generously exert every effort to radiate Christ's peace and love in all areas
of our apostolate. With Jesus we strive to accept unconditionally all persons
who enter our lives, showing special concern for the poor.
