We do this by being faithful to our charism of compassion, faith, and trust in Divine Providence. We value Community Daily Prayer together, as well as individual contemplative prayer and time to develop the whole person. Studying Scripture and wholesome reading are important to us. We see the importance of reading the signs of these times, knowing about the issues which affect the lives of ordinary people, so that we may be a voice and a helping hand to them. We count hospitality and availability as high priorities, and endeavour to make all who come feel welcome.
